I'd like to get a couple of these. I'll even leave work in the middle of the day to get them (I'm just writing right now anyways). But I started worrying at the availability, and then I just thought "Screw it, if I really want it that bad, I can go and pay $30 for one next time I'm in TO." Starting to worry about stuff like this, quickly turns into me realizing it's really not that important.

JK, look at the tags below the "Subject" box in the reply screen.

I'm confused about Waterloo not getting it either. Both King and Northfield, and King and William usually get everything, including all the brewery features.

It would be nice to get a chance to purchase this, but having had both the 12 and 8 before, I'm not too concerned with missing out.

Would like to put this bad boy to use
Sorry for being so frickin big and sideways will have to figure that one out.

I'm really interested in how this release will play itself out. Can't say I'll be buying one since I've had a chance to try it and I'm attempting to save money right now, but I'll be quite impressed with Toronto if it doesn't sit around in the stores for at least a little while.

Me too, I have a few in my cellar and the price is a bit steep, more than I paid. I think they have put them in the right stores. It takes a certain type of non-beer geek buyer to drop that cash on a few beers, regardless of the "best beer in the world" hype.

I can't help but wonder how many are going to end up on ebay.

That loophole has been closed by Ebay now.

Didn't know that, thanks.

Nope, people just saying the bottles are empty, adding a question mark or a star next to the work @empty@.

Ebay lives on.

yep, dont even care

don't you want to split on a pack still matt? i can swing by stone rd in guelph, it's on the way home anyways.

to anyone who hasn't tried one yet and is salivating at this 'opportunity' - it's really not that spectacular of a beer. worth trying for sure, but if you've hyped it up to some holy level, it'll most likely be a disappointment.

How can it not be a disappointment? After the hype in the media and the"it's coming soon!", "on its way!, "it'll be here next week!!!" announcements, I'm expecting moonbeams to shoot out of the bottle when it's opened.

Also, I hear Garbo is coming.

That's what I assumed ceecee was referring to, unless he meant Greta Garbo.
