I think last year they were using a 'bottled on' date

wonder if there will be a similar best before on the breakfast stout

either way, I don't really care I guess - I'm still going to cellar a bunch of backwoods/bastard

Just got back from Queens Quay and they've got all of 'em, including the Breakfast Stout. They were just in the process of putting them out.

Looks like I'm making a trip to my local store sometime in the very near future!

No sign of Breakfast Stout at Yonge and Summerhill... though all the rest are there down in the back in the fridge.

Really? I was just at Hunt Club and a guy on the floor checked the computer for me. The warehouse hadn't received any yet and the only store in the area that was listed for it was Richmond/Kirkwood.

Man, Hunt Club sucks. And isn't it supposed to be a flagship store in Ottawa?

Liberty Village also had 4 out of 5, no breakfast stout... maybe Monday if I'm lucky.... and it still isn't showing up on the website yet, so again, if you have a decently sized store, good chance they're in....
