Not long ago enough, apparently.

Hopefully there will be future shipments too! I'm hoping weeks-old.

I hope so too, I noticed another shipment of SNPA is in stores with an OCT date. I'm guessing week olds won't happen but maybe 3 week olds...

The Tap X are quite variable from awesome to terrible. Do you know what's in the Tri-Pack? 6, 8, & 10? I absolutely love Rochefort 6 and have had a very hard time finding it.

Got this response....

"Thank you for contacting helloLCBO about Stone Brewing Company.

We would like to take this time to thank you for your patience as we further investigated your original inquiry. At this time we have spoken with our management team and confirmed that the product in question should be available in stores the first week of August."

Any idea when this one is gonna hit the shelves? I only heard "end of july". Maybe when I'm in Vancouver soon I can pick up a bottle of the Phillips one.

no one's commented that we're getting a Lagunitas???

albeit not their best, but still.

i'm guessing we'll be seeing Lagunitas on tap by the end of the year. and i won't complain.
wondering if the Lagunitas bottles will have the same value dollarwise as they do in the States

I so wish!

If only the CLBO hadn't largely resorted to eliminating Christmas glass gift packs in the name of some kind of Green ideology or whatever nonsense.

Would be fantastic to get a few of the Rochefort glasses. Goblets are pretty ideal and I use them a lot.
