Some would have said the same about Westy 12 coming of asked a year or two ago. But that being said I was being sarcastic. I guess it just wasn't as evident as Belgian can be sometimes lol. Imperial and Breakfast stout are much more likely.

Woohoo!

Looking forward to the Centennial, obviously, but hopefully some Breakfast Stouts as well!

Have you had Breakfast Stout Jeff? If not, I can give you a bottle.

I find it somehow ironic that they very day that I drove all the way from Toronto to Grand Rapids to drink at Founders (and other beer related things) that Founders announces it will no be trying to enter the Ontario market!

I mean, seriously, this thread was posted just about a hour before I entered the tap room! What are the odds? It's fantastic news, of course, because I could only bring back so much. Would love more Red's Rye PA, that really hit the spot.

i saw it just after i got back. the Red's Rye was definitely a standout this weekend, and i kept going back to it (and it was the first growler to die when i got home). i'd had it before, but i assume it wasn't fresh as it never made that sort of impression.

pitchers of hopslam at the meanwhile was also pretty damn awesome too :D

- And I'm just halfway into my first pack of Centennial (not coincidentally - iFounders just became available at Premier Gourmet, along with Alesmith.)

Thanks again @ matt7215 for the breakfast stout a few years back, Founders make a worthy brew. It is all upping the game here!
