I didn't even buy the milk stout because they didn't allow it to be sold as singles.

I think next time I go to the LCBO I'm picking up a 6-pack / 4-pack of something and telling them at the cash I only want 1 bottle and will be immediately returning the rest if I'm forced to buy the whole package. I wasn't allowed to bu ya single of "The calling" recently, even though it was already a lone single bottle out of the pack....argh, somehow 5 other bottles got individual sales, but mine was off limits.

The Milk Stout IS totally amazing for the beer in it and the handy format. Just want to say that!

The Delicious isn't cheap - it's a de-glutenized beer tasting much like Stone IPA - but I have spent $18-19 USD on Sculpin a few times. The value isn't terrible considering our money's worth half what it was a few years ago in many ways.

"Collective Arts"
"terrible beer"

First I've heard those together.

Which beer(s) did you not like?

I'll chime in on the CA beers. I had the mix pack a few days ago with the Gose, Hefe and Papaya Saison selections. The Gose was good, the hefe was very nice and the Papaya Saison was a friggen abomination. It was so bad I had to go trick my wife into having a sip so I wasn't the only one suffering through it.

I've really been digging the CA Saint of Circumstance Citrus Blond Ale. Don't be fooled by the blonde ale moniker - in many ways this drinks like a juicy session pale, or a hoppy american wheat (think gumballhead). Its quite decently hoppy (Citra, Centennial, Amarillo). Perfect summer beer.
