Coon-hen would be the Americanized approximation if the 'Kuhn' part is from the common German name prefix 'Kühne'.

Ah here we go. Google saves the day.

Got excited seeing the shelf labels (upside down) for this release at King/Spadina last week. Refrained from hassling staff about stock.

lcbo really jumping the gun on things this year.. all the 'hoppy beer' displays set up with no Founders/Green Flash in stock yet, the toronto star article with the 'best beers at the lcbo right now', signs for Dupont beers on the shelf already, and the BIA IPA is featured in the lcbo magazine..

Good day,

All the beers are here, they are just going through lab. We expect to see them in stores in about a week if not sooner.

Saison Dupont though shipped separately so it should be on shelves by month's end.

Good things are worth waiting for :D

Cheers,
R+R

^ we all continue to love the understated, polite and entirely beer-serious folks at Roland & Russell imports. Thanks for the multi-Dupont goodness.

As of this morning stock of all the Brasserie Dupont brewery feature beers is showing as available at Cooper Street....pick some up for the weekend! Hopefully, other stores will soon release too.

Is the Saison available too?? Or only the original 4?

Saison Dupont arrived to the LCBO warehouse on March 12th. We expect it in stores in about two weeks. In the meantime, enjoy the other four.

Cheers and thanks for your interest in Brasserie Dupont.

Any idea of how much of each of the Dupont beers came into Ontario. They were showing as available yesterday at two stores and both had none of them today... just wondering if it's only trickling out or if I've already missed them?
