Overall this is a solid release.
Every time a season release list comes out I hope for another US brewery to be added aside from the typical Southern Tier and Brooklyn but they seem to favour European stuff at the LCBO when the go abroad.
Would have been nice to see the ST offering switched up this year from the Creme Brulle to something else like Mokah or Java but I can't complain about this release as a whole.

keep in mind it depends on what is submitted by importers. i agree with you but its hard for the LCBO to list something that isnt imported or submitted.TheSevenDuffs wrote:

Koniingshoven Quadrupel and St. Bernardus Abt 12? Nice!
Am I misremembering, or wasn't the Marston's Oyster Stout on the list last year only it never showed up? Not that I am in any way even remotely tempted to try it.
Anyway, there's some I'll try, some I'll stock up on and some I'll pass on altogether.

No kidding. I've already cleared a whole shelf in the cellar!matt7215 wrote:the price is right too!Wheatsheaf wrote:Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is the first solo appearance of a St. Bernardus beer at the LCBO. Going back 15+ years I only remember giftpacks. They definitely picked the right one.
