I have split several posts in this thread had veered into general complaints about the LCBO into a separate thread, which I have subsequently frozen.
If you want to debate/complaint/bitch/whatever about the LCBO, there is a thread dedicated to that topic, which I've just made sticky so it's more obvious:
http://www.bartowel.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=6771
Please keep this thread ON TOPIC, discussing the beers in the release and their availability (or lack thereof), WITHOUT going into more general LCBO bashing. Posts of that nature will be deleted.
Sorry to be a hardass, just trying to keep the informational threads like this one free of noise.

The Celebrator and 1845 are world-class. They really show that a HUGE brewer can still make a product that's second to none.
The 3M Porter is phenomenal. I'm a bit surprised that the price point isn't a bit better with the LCBO's buying power, but it's certainly worth it.
Hopefully they're all late and I can pick some up around Christmas holidays.

Fuller's 1845 Bottle Conditioned Ale
Box Steam Funnel Blower
Affligem Dubbel
Overall not a bad list at all.

I really look forward to these Autumn releases beers every Christmas.
Celebrator's return is surprising, as the top-rated Doppel in ze Welt. It was around here simultaneous with Weltenburger long ago, maybe just over two bucks and the 500ml Welty was slightly more . Note that Hirsch Doppel is gone (for now, but we can still hope for their mediocre lagers in mix-packs around Xmas.)
Also encouraging to see more Quebec brewers infiltrating our Ontario system, to gradually shift many drinkers (brewers?) from their parochial tastes toward a broader spectrum of beer styles. Shibby shibui!!!!!
