It will arrive. The issue last time was that the Brooklyn 750ml bottles are heavy and the 12 pack was over the LCBO weight limit for cases by a few ounces. They are being repacked into 8 's in order to be compliant this time.PeenSteen wrote:Providing it actually gets here this timespinrsx wrote:Brooklyn Sorachi Ace - YES! going to be drinking this stuff all summer long

That would be very odd considering that all of the other NB canned beers are in 473 ml singles.spinrsx wrote:guy at the lcbo today was telling me that Nicklebrook Naughty Neighbour was going to be available in 6 pack 355ml cans soon. Not sure if there's any truth to this though..
Which is a format I'd LOVE to see NN available in, so fingers crossed that LCBO guy got his info mixed up...

Man, I soooo hope this is true. Either can size. And they could use this prime opportunity to shift this brand over to their new graphics and a markedly less tacky logo.

I had it on tap at Bar Hop awhile ago. I don't remember it having any Belgian qualities. It was a light blonde ale, with citrus fruit additions (don't recall the particular fruits, if I could even tell at the time). I found it to be very refreshing and fairly tasty, but certainly not as good as R&R. You could easily down a few on a summer day, however.icemachine wrote:Another batch of R&R is also on the way according to that update, I believe the Saint of Circumstance is a Belgian Blonde

It was on tap at The Only beerfest over the weekend. I liked it, but it's nothing like R&R. Very citrusy, due to the citrus zest in it. Think hot weather patio session ale.heebes wrote:awww, without having tasted yet...damn. R&R was great but, aw what the heck, i'll give em the benefit of doubt. hope this is a great summer beerspinrsx wrote: Blonde Ale (19 IBUs)
Good point, nothing about it tasted particularly Belgian to me. I think the fruits were oranges and lemons (maybe limes), but my palate was pretty wrecked by then so I can't be sure.jrenihan wrote:I had it on tap at Bar Hop awhile ago.
