Tempest ... LCBO ... Monday Oct 22.



THIS OCTOBER 22????

Edit: Those sneaky awesome sweet buggers!

Here's the release info -

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4292334/Tempes ... ELEASE.pdf
Anyone know what happened to this? No evidence at the brewery or on LCBO web site.
Amsterdam just shipped out yesterday - but apparently all the upfront work is done, so expect some lag time, not sure though.

The way they were tweeting, it sounded like maybe sometime later this week. As of Nov. 1, there'll be Tempest at the new Leaside store.

New store in Markham (#7 & Warden) has some of the usual suspects for Xmas gift sets ... Just picked two bottles of Shepherd Neame Xmas Ale (288803).

Looks like they should have some Church Key Holy Smoke Stout as well - just not on the shelf yet.

Muskoka confirms:
"Available at the LCBO. Year round, new addition to our core line-up."
About damn time we got a year-round DIPA. This is great news.
And they've just confirmed via FB that it should be on LCBO shelves Nov. 1.

Hmm...possibly this and Tempest on the same day, huh? Sweet!

Strange, it's not on the LCBO or drinkvine website yet.
I used to sell beer. Now I don't.

From their Facebook page via BA Micro-brasserie Le Trou du diableThere will be some Buteuse at LCBO very soon.

Looking at some follow up comments,

We (Half Pints) were sending a full pallet of Humulus Ludicrous destined for Ontario, and the LC couldn't manage to "free up any warehouse space to recieve it".
