Pretty much. It's just beer after all.Belgian wrote:And we're all so happy for them. They can keep this fucking beer.SteelbackGuy wrote:

If you`re reading this, there`s a 15% chance you`ve got a significant drinking problem. Get it fixed, get recovered!
Ola Dubh 12 has been restocked at a bunch of locations as of yesterday. I picked up 3 bottles at the Atrium on Bay location about 45 minutes ago out of a case on the floor in front of the seasonal beers. There were still 8 left in the box.
The 40 is also finally showing stock, but only at Summerhill, where they have 240 bottles (20 cases). Given that Cooper St. apparently has 9 cases, that only leaves 1 case remaining. I wonder which one will be the lucky store to receive it???

Yes the Ola Dubh 40 is at Summerhill. Stopped by @ 12:30 pm.
Don,t go to Queens Quay /Cooper St. as it wasn't there and is
not showing in the system for that location.

Just grabbed 7 bottles from Summerhill and it appears that all 10 cases are out on the shop floor and not being held for anyone; so all the moaners and bitchers on here are looking pretty silly at the moment running off at the keyboard over a 'rumour'.
It is selling pretty quick though - the staff at Summerhill are pleasantly pleased at how quick it is selling and it will more than likely be gone by the end of the day!!!
And I was told by an LCBO member this morning at Queens Quay that I could call when the 40 is released there and have some bottles held for me. All depends on who you speak with, I suppose.

Greg, I'd suspect the Summerhill level is a system glitch and they don't actually have that many cases. They were supposed to get the same allotment as Cooper St.GregClow wrote: The 40 is also finally showing stock, but only at Summerhill, where they have 240 bottles (20 cases).

Looked like about 20 cases on the floor when I was there @ 12:30 pm.

Blue did mention Summerhill had out "all ten cases" out which would be 120 bottles. That may leave about ten more cases, possibly in transit??

At any rate I bought a few, andf there were 35 of the 120 left as of 4.10 PM. I don't imagine the window of opportunity will be very long for most people to even chance finding it at Summerhill! Unfortunate.

You will freakin' enjoy that.And I just 6 - sheepishly I realize that is 1.66% of the entire shipment to Ontario. I will definitely share them though, with 150,000 other Ontarians. Hell it's rarer here than Westy 12, a beer that's 100% private & gray market. Just in case this encourages anyone to buy at least one OD-40!!Torontoblue wrote:Just grabbed 7 bottles from Summerhill .
