I always liked the Corona Bucket. Really enhances the aroma when you drink out of it.

Jokes aside, those Westy gift packs may have been an issue (broken glasses all over the place apparently).

in the free 'beer world' magazine at the lcbo there is an ad for Uncommon Brewers Siamese Twin Ale - 4 pack of cans for $14.95. This seems like an odd format and beer for the lcbo to bring in, but I will still give it a whirl nonetheless

Any word on what the price will be per bottle?

After getting only 1 last time, I think I want... well, MORE. ;)

Odd. I could have shown I bought a few cases from Peter last year.

He was bringing them in through a 3rd party broker, much to the chagrin of both the brewery and ourselves.

We've got Kwak in stock at the moment in cases of 24x330ml and 12x750ml, a few cases of 3x1500ml of the Karmeliet and also have the Deus in cases of 6x750ml available now for pick up here at our office.

Karmeliet 24x330ml will be coming in shortly.

I almost want to ask how much for the 3x1500mL Karmeliet. Then I think of my bank balance and think I'm better off not knowing
