Did you use the email address above to order the glass and does it have 10th anniversary etched on it?

I used the two email addresses mentioned previously in this thread. No there's not 10th Anniversary etched in it. Just Sam Adams Utopias on the foot of the glass. Came in a nice black cylinder like a whisky would.

The 'stock' for Utopias keeps growing....as they get them in for pick up:

I guess if there is stock at 'your' store you should get a call soon.

A friend picked up my bottle last Friday, and sent the email for the glass. Yay.

Update.

And yes! Just got confirmation the glass is being sent.

Excellent

I haven't heard from the LC yet. Should I be concerned?

Haven't heard yet either. I wouldn't be concerned. Last time it took 4 weeks to get mine.

Got my call on Friday when I was out of town and picked mine up yesterday from my local store in Mississauga.

Possibly- the last time out I chose a busy store and they never did call me. This time I went for a quieter outlet and I was looked after very well.

Which is your local store? I'm in Mississauga too - I asked for it to be sent to the Erin Mills/Eglinton outlet. Have not heard from them though...

Square One. Right beside my work. Your store is technically my local store though. Looks like I made the right decision there (debated between the two) :)

Maybe the West end is coming out slower. Mine is going to the Liberty Village LC and I have not heard from them either.

Mine showed up at the Brock St location in Parkdale last week, so it can't be that.

Called my store this morning (Brock Rd. and Kingston Rd.) they've got two already. Neither of which are mine. They suggested I call Vintages to ensure I didn't request a different store. I called and they said not all of the 400 have been sent and that mine will be sent to Brock Rd and Kingston just hasn't happened yet. You would think they'd send all the bottles to a single store not just one or two and then go back the following week with the next truck.
