[quote="spinrsx"]been over a year since they announced this online shopping thing.. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/201 ... nline.html
sooooo, it'll go live by 2018?
An agent told me the other day online shopping at the LCBO is rolling out next month. That's all I know.

I believe it's march 2 2016. If the calling was bottled around march, forget it.

Nice tart saison. Buy it. No BB date. Was Bottled in December. Its bottle conditioned so don't worry about it.Ukie wrote:What's the Jolly Pumpkin like? Does it have a BB date?spinrsx wrote:Calling ipa STILL sitting in a warehouse somewhere? What a shame.

I assume the same is true for Rogue 7 Hop. The last time it came to the LCBO is was reasonably fresh and tasty.spinrsx wrote:Calling ipa STILL sitting in a warehouse somewhere? What a shame.
Anyone know offhand if the Jolly is going to be released into more of the suburbs stores or is this pretty much it?

2 1/2 months from bottling is pretty typical for Rogue releases in Ontario. It'd definitely be nice to see fresher stock available, but I might still grab a bottle or two. I remember thoroughly enjoying this one last time it was around. Happy to take one for the team and report back with my thoughts.DeMarco wrote: Bottled May 3. Just so frustrating.

^^^^^^ I also remember enjoying it last year, and I remember thinking how well it held up when I drank it vs. the bottling date. I too will pick up a bottle or two and see if I enjoy it as much this time around
