Nice, thanks for the heads up. Does this mean it is a regular listing?

The LCBO website's live stock states 0, but sites with less frequent API checks (eg Drinkvine) say there's over 350 sitting at Summerhill. Chances are they'll ship from there?

I can confirm the LCBO had decided to have same bottles at Summerhill, even though they told us it would be online exclusive.

This batch has a best before date of April 2017 so I'm not sure when it was bottled. October might seem like a reasonable assumption as that would give it a 6 month shelf life. Either way I picked up a bottle and look forward to getting into it this weekend as I haven't seen any bottling dates fresher than April or May in quite some time now.
Just picked up a bottle in this format and it's BB July 31/2017. At 6 months it would make this batch less than a month old, I think it will be the freshest I've had it.

What the deal with Fat Tug.....is it a regular listing? It's been around now, what, close to a year, but distribution is still so sporadic. I've only seen it in 2 stores out of probably 15-20 that I've been in during this time. Unfortunate.

Has anyone confirmed that Cafe Bastardo is at Summerhill?
