Ordered this online but haven't tried it yet. How was it?

Cascade Vitis Noble and Sang Royal are $8 off (~$18) at Weston/401 location, possibly elsewhere too as Cascade a proved slow-moving at regular prices here.

Weston Crossroads is a great store for clearouts, but these two items are still full list price in my area.

These are also Cascade's two highest rated (and presumably most desirable) beers. For me it's a question of whether to go way out there to save a few bucks but then hand back the price cut to the makers of the product (I imagine it's their whole profit, who can say.)
If I was local I'd grab that deal quick.

The Vitus Nobel is marked down via a hand written label tied to the neck which only says “Cascade.” It has the original price wrong, so the sale price is actually $16.45. The Sang Royal have no such labels, clearly an oversight, which was corrected for me, via a price override.

I’m pretty sure the same two Cascade beers were marked down at the Avenue and Lawrence location too when I was there before New Year’s. I passed on them as I only have a half jar of Tums at home right now...

Sierra Nevada is all over Yonge St. At Wellesley and Summerhill.

As well, Summerhill has an awesome selection of US beer. Over the weekend I picked up some New Belgium Fat Tire, Oskar Blues Dale's Pale Ale, Lickinghole Creek 9 Mile and Heir Apparent, Founder's All Day IPA and Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin.

Did we get fresh Sculpin in, or is that bottle like 2 years old?

Those Cascades were hype for a short time weren't they?
Good stuff, just pricey.
