I saw Thor's hammer today, grabbed one and a few cans of karma citra.......then realized I'd misplaced my wallet. Hopefully the 12 bottles or so will still be there tomorrow
The Kanata Centrum & Hazeldean/Castlefrank locations also have them.

I'll do you one better. Picked up a bottle of Thor's Hammer last night at Wilson/Dufferin LCBO only to have it slip out of my hands and smash on my driveway as I attempted to put the paper bag into the recycling bin. It smelled very delicious before I hosed it all down. Wish I forgot my wallet!sofakingdrunk wrote:I saw Thor's hammer today, grabbed one and a few cans of karma citra.......then realized I'd misplaced my wallet.

Speaking of accidents be careful carrying the Gouden Carolus Christmas pack. The bottles are not very tightly packed and have a tendency to rattle around far enough to make solid contact with the glass in the middle. Mine did it so loud I thought the glass had broken.
You know what I have in my cellar? Dust, I have dust in my cellar.

I was definitely sober but moving a bit too hastily. Happened as I sat the box down in my car. Which I was driving sober lol.El Pinguino wrote:I was sober when I carried mine, and had no problem whatsoever.CoolB wrote:Speaking of accidents be careful carrying the Gouden Carolus Christmas pack.

I noticed Gouden Carolus glass is made by Ritzenhoff, the same company that makes Westvleteren glasses, and 90% of all Belgian beer glasses according to their website.

Ok you win......or lose I guess. One of my year old triplets likes to,pour his sippy cup on the floor then try and suck it up; gotta say I'd be tempted to do that if I were in your shoes last night
If the fastener (cap or cork) is still on the bottle neck, you may have luck returning 'breakage' for full credit.beerstodiscover wrote:Picked up a bottle of Thor's Hammer last night at Wilson/Dufferin LCBO only to have it slip out of my hands and smash on my driveway as I attempted to put the paper bag into the recycling bin.

As with all little fifedoms, it is really up to the manager how reasonable your claim sounds. It's a small loss either way.

Interesting to know. I think I have too much shame to walk back in there with some boozy shards of glass and a receipt. Maybe if it was a $20 bottle...Belgian wrote:If the fastener (cap or cork) is still on the bottle neck, you may have luck returning 'breakage' for full credit.[/url]
