skaghevn wrote:Not sure if it has been posted here yet (softly curses search function), but did find a batch of the Historic Ales from Scotland packs @ Summerhill had Kelpie in them. Same product # as the regular pack, but the regular mix was in a grey box whilst the one with Kelpie is in the trad brown box.

Been looking for that one for over a decade now... :D
I was at Queens Quay and saw some of the brown boxes with Kelpie.

One 'big package' Ontario brew I know is not a bunch of puffery... damn fine fuckin' beer. I am so proud of Nickel for brewing this. Actually will buy one to make sure it was amazing as I remembered (and Winey Bastard too - whoah.)

wished they would have bottled the Winey Bastard - Never had a Pinot Noir aged beer, with, well, so MUCH pinot noir...

Stopped by Queen's Quay today, and there are still several boxes of Kelpie. If anybody is looking for those, maybe think about making a trip down.

What JProulx means is that there are still several HISTORIC ALES FROM SCOTLAND gift packs containing a bottle of KELPIE. Bought some myself yesterday as I needed samples and it's cheaper to buy the pack than arrange for shipment from Scotland.

Had it last year and I agree that it was excellent but I think they aged it a little to long. I hope they release it again and they age it for a little less time...
