Picked up a bottle yesterday, all gone from that store now, yikes!

Who says people in Hamilton have no taste?

I think its time the LCBO made one of our stores a feature store.
It could even be Ancaster, Dundas or Stoney Creek. But the one by me would be nice.

Agreed. Some of the more limited releases seem to fly off the shelves. There are quite a few lcbo offerings that I didn't get to try recently simply because I didn't get to the store the day of.

So, Peen, how would one go about petitioning to get a feature store in an underserviced metro of 750,000 anyway?

To my fellow Toronto eastenders: Queen and Coxwell has Deus plus a bunch of the holiday items including the St. Ambroise RIS. The Deus is tucked away from the beer section, though - on the other side of the store where the coolers/ciders are stocked, amidst the holiday stuff.

There was also a Black Butte left on the shelf.

Go get 'em.

Cameron's Deviator showing stock. Got a couple yesterday at King and Spadina.

100ml less than one year but 4 bucks less. Works for me. It was $14 last year right?

Thank god, if only to avoid the confusion (but also because it sucks).
