Will be grabbing these.GregClow wrote: 288720 / Unibroue La Terrible / $10.95 / UNIBROUE / CANADA

Kind of interesting (and in other ways sad) that these beers are the two I want most and yet they both come from relatively close to Toronto.
What I really want is the Westy 12 though.
Indeed. Any info on which packs will have glassware? Some I've seen in the past, but others I don't know about. King? Wytchwood? Creemore?Kel Varnsen wrote:This should save me some money, or at least save me some shelf space in my basement, since it doesn't look like there are a lot of packs coming in that would come with glasses or other free stuff that I would want, that I don't already have.
btw....anyone out there with a 2009 Blauw for trade or share? I've got 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011. Would be willing to share in a vertical tasting or trade some good free market Alberta shizznit.

we're the centre of the (Canadian) universe. seeing that Manitoba got their shipment 2 months ago? that's what makes me laugh.PeenSteen wrote:Yeah I really hope they are still good then, seeing as how these age terribly and all.atomeyes wrote:can't believe i'm about to say this, but:
looks like Esprit was right and Westy 12 won't be released until 2013.
what bullshit. thanks, LCBO

True... Though the LCBO has never been known to be efficient. I've got a few bottles coming from Calgary in my next trade. And I might get my buddy to ship a 6-er since they're on sale at most of the stores for $60 right now!atomeyes wrote:we're the centre of the (Canadian) universe. seeing that Manitoba got their shipment 2 months ago? that's what makes me laugh.PeenSteen wrote:Yeah I really hope they are still good then, seeing as how these age terribly and all.atomeyes wrote:can't believe i'm about to say this, but:
