My favourite IPA of theirs! Very happy about this!
First time having this was at Session and I too was quite impressed. Happy to see this coming!

It's going to be in 650 ml bottles, and I'd assume the release will be somewhere along the lines of the My Bitter Wife and Audrey Hopburn Tank 10 releases.
Good to hear. I haven't had that one and it sounds interesting.
FYI, the Saison du Pump is now in stores. It's not even listed on the LCBO site, but there were several bottles in the Wilson & Dufferin LCBO.

And the draught version at Beer Bistro is real nice, too. :)

Yeah, most likely. General list would be very nice, though.

Do we know for sure -- like, 100% -- that BCBS will be coming to LCBO shelves? And if so, will it be before Christmas?

Not 100% so I would hold off writing about it now if I were you
