Either that or they actually received that much. Could be a likely candidate for clearance. Probably good for 2 or 3 years, be a bitch if they dropped the price to $6. LOL!

It's probably just cleared the warehouse and hasn't been distributed to all the stores its going to yet. Give it a few days.

The second one is an old code that was used the first time Orval was brought into the LCBO. It is 3.45 and if your going to call a store to find out if they have any physically in stock use the LCBO No. 439992 because the other one wont show any stock.

The Belhaven Scottish Stout has shown up in Peterborough. Maybe we will be seeing this before the new year?

Plenty of Belhaven Scottish Stout showing up in Oakville now.

Curse you, Oak Park location! Holding hostage all the Orval, Belhaven, and Ola Dubh from traveling further south.

They seem to have quietly raised the price of Orval to $3.60.

Stock for Orval is still pathetic, get it together LIK-BO!

Less than a three per cent hike over the 2008 price. Less than inflation! Orval can be WAY more expensive in the States.

It'll get here, so jump on it and buy cases, or else order some cases (less worry about running out a month later.)
