Junction Black Lager is really nice. Lots of smokey roasty goodness. Let it warm up.

I've purchased this, but haven't had it yet. Looking forward to it; I've really enjoyed the others beers from them available at the LCBO.beerstodiscover wrote:Junction Black Lager is really nice. Lots of smokey roasty goodness. Let it warm up.

I'll have to give it a go, but do try Napanee's Blacklist, it's quite good.sofakingdrunk wrote:I'll third this, really nice beer.

Yes I plan to for sure. the store actually didn't have any Blacklist, that's why I grabbed the junction instead

Yeah Napanee's Blacklist is probably my favourite dark beer at that price range (3.50 or less for 473ml) currently at the LCBO, it's very stout-like (darker/richer than other black lagers).

Vitus is on shelves, grabbed a couple today.

So I just had the Junction back to back with Blacklist. The junction was good, but the Blacklist is a fuller taste with more roasted malt.sofakingdrunk wrote:I'll have to give it a go, but do try Napanee's Blacklist, it's quite good.sofakingdrunk wrote:I'll third this, really nice beer.

Ugh, come on LCBO, list it on the website already so I don't have to scour every location.sofakingdrunk wrote:midlife crisis wrote:+1. And also Vitus. Any sightings?

Anyone in Burlington, Hamilton or Grimsby see any Weihenstephaner Vitus around?
The new VITUS brewed at Brunswick is at the Square One LCBO in Mississauga. Yet it's not showing on their site anywhere.
I see the Duvel MC CHOUFFE just got listed, but no stock yet.

Has anyone seen or heard word on whether the CUVEE VAN DE KEIZER ROOD is actually coming? I got a couple of the BLAUW now on shelves, but not listed. The ROOD doesn't show on the HelloLCBO list of Autumn releases now. http://hellolcbo.com/app/answers/detail ... lease-2017

The Rood is now listed. It's listed as "Roos", however.Jonah Hex wrote:Has anyone seen or heard word on whether the CUVEE VAN DE KEIZER ROOD is actually coming? I got a couple of the BLAUW now on shelves, but not listed. The ROOD doesn't show on the HelloLCBO list of Autumn releases now.
