I liked the Cameron's White Oat quite a bit when had a chance to have it on draught last year. Will definitely look for that.

Agreed, loved that beer. One of the few I've ever had that uses Oat Malt instead of flaked oats.

A good number of beers on that recent list that I haven't tried yet. First time for a De Leite beer to head to the LCBO I think?

I'm psyched for what sounds like a decent Kriek in the Bo.

this was a $18.95 bottle at the brewery last I grabbed. Will be interesting to see how it does in the LCBO if it's at that price point

nice to have a Gigantic brewing beer in Ontario, had this on tap not generally a huge Beaus fan, but this was well done.

Understand that the B-side stuff is Beaus brewing it but it's Gigantic's recipe. The idea is to allow outside brewers access to the Ontario market without all of the usual headaches of brewing beer outside of Ontario and importing it into the LCBO.

I wonder if there will even be very much of it. It should sell however much there is, people appreciate barrel aging is expensive for materials and labor. Hope it be spectacular.

From Central City,
Look what we have coming to an LCBO near you. Yes, we are proud to announce we will have our Red Racer ISA in 473ml cans in Ontario from April.
As far as ISA's go, it's not bad. Good camping beer!

Well that's funny. If they are creatively bankrupt, why don't they just make chocolate beers with tie-ins to Canadian rock bands?
