Sweet. Always nice to get to try defining examples of a style.

Pricey, but better value than the bomber at least.

Had this at a weird potato restaurant in Leipzig 8 years ago (amazing little city) and have wanted to re-drink it ever since...

I spoke with the Stone guy at the Ottawa Beerfest. He also mentioned that 02.02.02 would be coming to the LCBO. Also Delicious IPA but it's coming in high, $19 a six pack.

I have heard the re-brew isnt as good as the original but that could be nostalgia on the part of raters that have had both

LCBO ordered it to have on shelves in time for season premiere... then didn't get pick it up until about a month ago. Apparently some bottles broke in transit and some of the cardboard cases got moldy as result (as happens all the time) so the entire shipment was sent to a third party warehouse for re-packaging. Should be soon (then again I've been saying that for awhile...)

Are we talking about the Seven Kingdoms Wheat Ale or the soon to be released Valar Dohaeris tripel ale?

I guess since the next season starts Summer 2017, the LCBO has plenty of time.
