Fresh Founders Centennial at the LCBO
Does anyone know what's going on with inventory? Hello LCBO told me months ago it was in lab testing but there is no way it's taking them that long. Then again the same person also told me no more Red Racer regardless of can size. I miss Founders Please get it on the shelf soon as my DFH 60min and Firestone Union Jack supply is almost out

I talked to hello LCBO about a month ago and they told me to expect more on the shelf late May early June.vandutchy wrote:Does anyone know what's going on with inventory?

I noticed on the LCBO site today there are showing some inventory at Summerhill. Not sure if this is the beginning of the roll out but let's hope it is and that it is all fresh bottles. If anyone can confirm please let us all in on it! Thanksvandutchy wrote:Spoke to the lcbo yesterday and this was to have arrived in warehouse on May 26th but never showed so they think it wil be about 4-6 more weeks before it is on the floor
Thank god GLB Thrust IPA was released today and I loaded up on it.

Found some at an LCBO in Windsor today with the same 22/03/2015 date. Beer Associate told me she just got it in last week and was told by the agent that Founders is pulling out of Ontario once this stock is done. The agent told her it was because Founders needs the product for demands at home, however her feeling was that LCBO warehouse issues is also to blame.
I used to sell beer. Now I don't.
Good going a**holes. We just lost one of the best breweries we've had here, and now other USA breweries will read about it, and go... oh what did Larry Bell say? That he'd never do business here?MatttthewGeorge wrote:Found some at an LCBO in Windsor today with the same 22/03/2015 date.

"I'm looking in my Crystal Ball, Ontario and I'm just not seeing our beer in your future."

Question: Why would anybody question the logic of aggressive Michigan breweries from avoiding a market with 7 million purchasers right next door? A bit obvious isn't it? Just look who runs our province. Many of the fence riders post here and run some of our bigger craft breweries.
