Well Stone's a lot farther away - love the brews they make though. Insane good. Stone may not be looking for this wide of a distribution, let alone red tape and jumping through hoops.ercousin wrote:Here's hoping for Stone...spinrsx wrote:as much as I'm loving the founders brewery feature.. do we know who the next brewer to be featured is?

From my point of view it would be a waste as well. But that's because I've been down to the US and traded to much over the past few years that I've tried everything in Stone's portfolio 10X over.PeenSteen wrote:Stone would be a total waste of a feature IMO.
That said, for every person like you or I in Ontario, there are 20 that would drool over a Stone feature. Same would go for Sierra Nevada, New Belgium, or any of the other larger craft breweries state side.
Have you even purchased much or any of the Founders feature?
How would Stone be a waste of a feature? I'd love to get some Ruination, Arrogant Bastard, Double Bastard, IRS, Smoked Porter, Old Guardian, Enjoy By...
Is it just that they're fairly common in the states? I've had maybe half of those before, but I'd certainly be happy to pick them up again if I could. Dang, it's been too long since I've had a Ruination.

Yeah, they are fairly common when traveling in the states and I have had them many times over. So again IMO it is a waste of a feature. Also, do you think for a second if Ontario were to get Enjoy By that it would get to retail before the Enjoy By date?squeaky wrote:How would Stone be a waste of a feature?

Lol it's sadly true. I wonder why they can't just get a few bottles for lab tests then make the big order once lab testing is passed?PeenSteen wrote:Yeah, they are fairly common when traveling in the states and I have had them many times over.

The humour in them missing the date is enough to make it a win-win.PeenSteen wrote:Yeah, they are fairly common when traveling in the states and I have had them many times over.
