Does anyone know if Summerhill is the only store that got the Weller? The web site inventory isn't updated.

I heard that Cornwall in Oakville did. I would think that Mavis and Dundas probably did, but if you check which LCBO stores have 'Whiskey Shops' those will be your best bet.

Asked today and said it still has not come into the warehouse yet.

But then you knew that was going to happen.

I'd wager a couple of months. Also wagering that Sierra Nevada and Stone are both gone from the province in two years at the absolute very most.

Yep, the LCBO is nothing if not reliably terrible.

Von Terra's Twitter account posted a picture of a Pale Ale case last week saying it'd be unleashed this week. The case has a best before date of August 8, 2015.



Looking forward to it hitting the shelves on August 9!

Odd that the cases have a best before. As far as I know, the bottles themselves have a born on date

The inventory for Weller is kinda weird. When you check all stores or use drinkvine nothing comes up but if you search cities on the LCBO site it will.

Also, Knob Creek Small Batch is literally everywhere. This bourbon recently shocked the world at the San Francisco World Spirit Awards winning Best Bourbon in blind tasting.
