This not as good as I remember as previous batches.....or maybe my palate has just been to spoiled by many New England IPA's recently.

Beyond the Pale Aromatherapy is pretty solid IPA addition to the lcbo if you ask me.

I just picked up some from the brewery and Aromatherapy is great; very much enjoying it and will definitely pick up more if it's at the LCBO.

About a week or so ago I was at Summerhill and saw an employee go in back and grab some Pink Fuzz cans for a customer.

Not everywhere, just Ottawa area like Pink Fuzz.

Silly.

I work at the brewery and there's talk of branching out to Toronto with Aromatherapy in the future. I think there's enough room/demand in the LCBO for another premium IPA alongside GLB Tank X's, Collective Arts or Sawdust Lone Pine.

So aroma therapy is only at the lcbo for a limited time right? Not a regular listing?

I've tried all their canned beers and the only ones I didn't really like were Zigzagger and The Bachelor. Dr Feelgood is really good.

Grand Reserve 17 is rolling out again. Some just arrived today at my wife's store.

I was in store last night, and someone was putting out the first of the Xmas beers. Did a quick walk by the end of the aisle to sneak a peek. Saw a bunch of the usual suspects : bah humbug,Sam smiths warmer,st peters winter,giant grolsch,st bernardus Xmas ale,plus the double trouble mix pack, a new belhaven mix pack and a Sapporo pack, with what looked like 2 glasses. So maybe there's hope there were be some decent beer arriving with glasses

Stupid fall release beers are not even out yet.. lcbo busy shipping xmas beers? Poor gknight and lagunitas sucks

I wish the LCBO would stock that Rochefort pack that included the goblet, I missed out on that one the last time it hit our shelves.

Anyone have any idea if the Cuvee Van de Keizer Blauw is coming back? Definitely miss that beer...

My Xmas purchasing from LCBO has been extremely low in recent years.....due to lack of good packs with glasses.

Same, I believe the St. Bernardus Xmas 6-pack was the last one I picked up a couple years ago.

Had my first Karma last night in a few years and add me to the list that doesn't think it's as good as it used to be

Hopefully my taste buds were just off a bit last night.

Chalk me up as another disappointed person with this batch of Karma Citra.
