From Twitter: "It looks like @LCBO has blocked LCBO API from crawling, which means no data updates. I’ll update here as I uncover more information".spinrsx wrote:anyone else having trouble with drinkvine? Seems like it hasn't updated in a few days..
The LCBO responded that they are working on resolving this after a small outcry about access to open data.

Evidently, the issue has still has not been addressed. I realize now how utterly dependant I have become on drinkvine to plan my LCBO trips. Maybe I should try going old school and just perusing the aisles at a couple of bear by locations to see what's new...

I actually use Drinkvine for my job so this "issue" (looking at you, again, LCBO) is really putting a kink in my workday.
I used to sell beer. Now I don't.

I messaged Ralph the other day, I'm not sure he was aware of the service disruption. Other third-party sites like the app Elsie is up and running.MatttthewGeorge wrote:I actually use Drinkvine for my job so this "issue" (looking at you, again, LCBO) is really putting a kink in my workday.
