Holiday Gifting

Post by Roland + Russell »

Hello everyone,

It is not too early to think of holiday gifts! This year our agency has two products in the release:

The Het Anker Gouden Carolus gift pack is an amazing value at $19.95 and contains Classic, Hopsinjoor, Ambrio and Tripel.

Bons Voeux from renowned Brasserie Dupont makes a perfect stocking stuffer. It is an elegant looking champagne style bottle and is only $6.95

Best wishes to all!

Great additions that I'm glad were brought in.

Any chance of you guys ever bringing back Gouden Carolus Cuvee Van de Keizer for a Christmas/Winter release like in past years?

These are my two favourite items from this year's holiday release and I've already bought myself a few "gifts". It would be great see Bons Voeux become an annual listing. I'll also second walz22 that a return of the Van de Keizer Blauw would be great!

We have applied with the Cuvee Van De Keizer Blauw every year since it was last here, but the LCBO has turned us down every time! It sold very well so we are not quite sure why it was turned down.

Thanks for supporting the Gouden Carolus giftpack and the Bons Voeux, they are both terrific! As for the Bons Voeux, enjoy it while it is here. It is doubtful that it would ever be available year round here. This market is fast becoming overcrowded with inexpensive cans.

Shame about Van de Keizer and perplexing indeed. Hopefully, they change their minds one year. I understand that Bons Voeux will never be a regular listing, but what are the chances it will return in future years as part of the holiday release?
