That's a pretty awesome line-up of Ontario brews. Makes me feel on warm and fuzzy as a long-time Ontario craft supporter.

I've seen few posts like that from NAC that never amount to anything, like their Parallel 49 lcbo sampler pack announcement from a half year ago

I find NAC to be extremely annoying and frustrating. I ignore then now because I am sick of their "teaser" posts on FB and I am also sick of the empty promises. Their portfolio isn't all that great anyway...

They certainly have way more "Coming soon!" posts, than "Now in stock!"

(I do like "less talk, more stock!")

Nice, pretty excited for Goose Island Sofie. I'm a fan of that one, though the Matilda isn't as exciting.

^ Yeah, when did the LC finally realize that Saison beers exist (Goose Island Sofie) ? Great!

And I'm excited that Keith's has decided to make hop ales. Oooeee! I just knew they would discover hops sooner or later. (Man are AK behind the game if they want to be more like Sam Adams. All their recent 'new' beers are utter abominations of the beer styles.)

i feel the opposite, looking forward to matilda, not as much for sofie, but overall its great that we are getting both

Pretty excited for the Goose Island...Have they changed at all since Ab In-Bev bought Goose Island?

Renaissance a nice acknowledgement by LC to hop fans

Blanche des Honnelles -first time being sold outside Europe, according to RB

Wish we could have got Lolita too, but still pretty happy about this.
