The Hitachino is available right now at the Queens Quay LCBO. Picked up a couple bottles on the weekend. They had a whole display of it not to mention a bunch of DDC's Corne du Diable which I don't think has been on the shelf for a little while.

Looks like the Hitachino Nest White came in at $3.85. Which is fine by me. It's a fantastic witbier, and I'm quite sure it'll be miles better than Shock Top Belgian White which seems to have quietly found its way into the LBCO:

By the bottling date that was the original release. I can tell you they still taste very good (as a beer worthy of sea travel to India should be. ;) )

Summerhill has it too, sometimes.

Ahhhhh....I didn't even think to check the bottling date. What a rookie mistake!
