.@ADAMS_APP Rochefort 10 Trappist ale will indeed be reappearing! We don't have an exact date yet but it will be 330 mL and item #6569 #beer
That was me asking about the Rochefort 10. Curious as to the price hike on this one.

:lol: no but why delist after a relatively short run and reassign with a new (actually older) product code. i think they caught on that this will sell for more.

Or it will come out in 255ml bottles, which are more sexy!

Man, those Bush Pilot guys certainly aren't timid, are they?

Interesting that it's a collab with Nogne.

The Stormy Monday was a collab with Anders Kissmeyer of Norrebro, so not that surpising

Big fan of the Stormy Monday. Will be highly anticipating this Norseman.

Great news.

Any inside info on the possibility of St. Louis Gueuze Lambic? I thought there was an entry on the LCBO page a couple weeks back, but it seems to be gone now... I'm really hoping it's still in the works.

Duvel Tripel Hop is a spectacularly dissapointing beer.

Robohop destroys everything else hoppy that the LCBO currently or has ever carried. Giddyup!

It's amazing not fresh too though. Just saying it's worth cellaring...

My Bitter Wife and Robohop...? Karma Citra after those and GLB has a permanent spot in my fridge for the next 6 months.

Dream big, I know. We've been over this before...

AYINGER BRAU-WEISSE
LCBO 273656 | 500 mL bottle
Price $ 2.75
Damn, that would be nice. One of my favourites, for sure.
Folks - just heard from the agent for this brand... LCBO had it listed incorrectly and it will be $3.95/bottle. Still - pretty decent price for a pretty decent beer.

Cheers,
Barry
