Interesting - didn't know about the change, but it's been split on RB:

wonder if a small amount of the new label green flash showed up at the lcbo by mistake? There only 3 4-packs in ontario according to the lcbo website..

still haven't seen any more green flash pop up in ontario, but I did notice that it is $12.90 now instead of $13.50 for a 4 pack which it used to be.

I know founders centennial is leaving, but the 6 packs are now $14.70 up from $13.80 earlier this year.

picked some of this up the other day. Neither the packages nor the bottles have any reference to 'strong beer' or french on the labels. The typical stickers that the LCBO usually makes people add to the packaging. Strange.

Best before Jan 2015 and drinking pretty decent. Although I preferred the original recipe.
