aside from the stone's (which no stores near me have yet), it feels like a bit of a lull right now in the lcbo beer dept. aside from replenishing some IPA's for fridge stock, there's not much interesting to warrant a trip to the store

I feel the same way. I go in and take a look, and generally it's usually, "I guess I will get this" or I just buy liquor. Luckily for me though, I can get my weekly fill of Barncat growlers/1Ls. I have other options closer to me, but I prefer Barncat.
