I think i will do so, but I'm curious as to what it is like now. Did anyone taste it at the launch on Thursday and/or has anyone been bold enough to crack a bottle?

F balls! Lcbo sucks. I guess I'm going to have to call around asking about this before I drive anywhere.

Some LCBO folks do their jobs, and the others spend 100% complaining about having said job.

It's showing stock on drinkvine, though that's still pretty dependent on the LCBO's stock numbers. I have no idea why they only seem to list new beers on the LCBO websites on Mondays mostly when clearly they have information on the stock...

I couldn't find it by searching, but it's under the new releases.

Only in TO though. Does that mean it has sold out of the other locations? Hopefully it means they haven't delivered outside GTA yet.

The search is mostly dependent on the LCBO's backend, but if you have the product number or one of the link pages has it (see Beard of Zeus) you can see stock. A long way we've come from 4054 bottles and Summerhill just over a month ago (December 9th).

Great, thanks for the clarification. Drinkvine is a great resource.

Disregard.

Though if you want it in Ottawa, the Glebe sounds like your best option.
