I was in there yesterday and it seems like they have plenty of stock on almost every release. Not sure how quick they move, the Lone Pine on the shelves was the original batch from May it seems (05 seemed to be the month code).

Yes he does. I had a good conversation with him when I was there a while back.

Yes, they are quite good, possibly the best location in the GTA for the past few seasons. The thing is they get the same quantity and quality as Cooper and Summerhill and almost as early as they do, but that store does not get an awful lot of traffic heading its way, so stuff doesn't get picked off the shelves as rapidly. Plus, unlike many other locations, I think these guys take the trouble to re-order many of their seasonals. I'm told their main beer guy used to work at Weston/401 and then switched. Crossroads has been trying to keep up - quasi successfully imo - ever since.
