Drinking one right now (THanks Mike!!) Really, really good stuff. Largely improved since the infant days. Well done GLB.

Holy cow. Thought you guys were all nuts but just cracked a can of this and it is much cleaner, and more crisply hoppy than before. Not as lovely as some of their assertive hoppier IPAs, but rather good! Nice work Great Lakes!

Lovin' this one too. At $2.50 a can I will be picking this up as long as the LCBO carries it.

This beer is really good. Lots of great hoppy flavors with really high session-ability. I will drink a ton of this over the summer and use it to enlighten some friends and family RE good beer.

I was a bad boy and bought a 6 on the domestic bottle breaker code, hahah :)
your numbers are gonna be fucked up come cycle count time :D
Yeah guys you really should probably just steal the beer from the store you work at. Shrinkage way easier to account for than purchases rang through on incorrect codes.

Get yourself a drinkvine account, easiest way to find what you want

edit - Except its not showing anywhere in LC or Drinkvine systems yet. Hope they still have some at the brewery

A truck is heading out to the bigger stores in Ajax/Pickering today. Brock rd. and Kingston Rd. I think...small orders for some reason - a case or two each? Weird.

does it normally take this long for a beer to show up the LCBO database?
I don’t care what the U.N. says, I don’t recognize countries that don’t produce beer.
