Has anyone actually found any bottles of Young's on any LCBO shelves?

I've managed to find the other five beers listed in the promotion, but the only evidence I've found of the Young's is a shelf card in front of a spot at my local outlet which has yet to be filled. It's not even listed in the inventory database on the LCBO site, as far as I can tell.

If anyone knows of a location in the downtown area that actually has some Young's in stock, please let us know. It's the one beer in the release that I was most looking forward to. :sad:

Hey Greg,
Where did you get the St. Peter's Old Style Porter? By the way I got the Young's Double Chocolate Stout at Queens Quay.
Cheers, Doug

Check the LCBO website. You can search which stores have stock and how much.

Doug - I forgot about the St. Peter's, so I guess I was wrong about finding all of the others. No sign of that yet, either.

Ardon - as I said in my original post, the Young's is not appearing in searches of the LCBO's online database.

Others - thanks for the tips. I'm going to one of the restaurants in the Distillery for lunch tomorrow, so if the weather isn't too bad, I might walk down to the Queens Quay store to snag some.

The St Peter's Old Style Porter is up on the LCBO website, albeit without any stores having any actual stock. Bizarrely, the Summer Ale seems to have re-emerged on the site as well.

Greg, the Summerhill location has tons of them along with all the others in the release. In fact they pretty much have everything. I spent A LOT there 2 weeks ago :smile:

FWIW the St Lawrence Market LCBO had some Double Chocolate Stout a couple of days ago.
