About a month ago I picked up a bottle of Brugse Tripel at the LCBO. Wow, what a great beer, I quickly went back and bought the remaining 6 bottles and was told there would be no more. Anyone else out there like this beer.

That's a nice one. They brought that and the Corsendonk Agnus in last Christmas, and the Bruges was actually in magnums the previous Christmas. So I wouldn't be surprised to see at least one of these two back this year (or a magnum of something, anyway!)

These were all magnums and came in a nice cylinder. Would have made a nice gift. I bought them and gave them all to myself:)

This year's Holiday Gift Program will include Corsendonk Pater 750ml in a canister, Duvel Twinpack with Glass, Chimay Gift Pack with Glass (all 3 beers), Maredsous Gift Pack with Glass (all 3 beers), Orval Twinpack with Glass, La Trappe Twinpack with Glass (Dubbel and Tripel). Pricing is, in my opinion, really good so all of you glass collectors look out for these!

That's good news. I've been looking to acquire an Orval glass for some time now; it's just not right to drink Orval out of a Chimay glass.
