This thread is a great idea. I appreciate all those who post these new releases and when certain stores get them before others. Looking forward to those that PeenSteen posted earlier.

1) I see Jesus in all kinds of places - soup kitchens, homeless shelters, community outreach at church.

2) that kind of money is WAY too much just to jizz in my pants. I can do that for free.

It is nice to see Cameron's branching out. For the longest time I've just relegated them to the back burners of Ontario craft.
Beer, not just for breakfast anymore.

+1
Hopefully the $12.95 ea for these was well spent.
Proud if myself today though. Walked right past the two Trafalgar releases. Usually I suck myself into trying everything once. Didn't do it this time for them.

I think now that it's a permanent beer with Cameron's I don't think it'll take long for them to get it in there. Although, it seems as though the 'BO love affair with IPAs might be fading and they are starting an affair with barrel aged beers. :wink:

Still, I'm no insider, but willing to bet the wheels are turning on that one.

I disagree. More likely they are just awaiting a more appropriate "summer" launch. Likely see it in spring?

I'm no insider but when the sign at the brewery says "get it here first" something must be in the works. Or would that just mean before bars?

It sounds like we agree. I don't think the RPA's coming out soon, but do think that it'll be in the LCBO eventually. Maybe as a seasonal first, then hopefully as a regular.

That'd be nice to see. I missed out on getting to try the RPA. No one had it on tap in the Guelph region (at least not that I heard about).
