There's TONS of it in Cooper Street, I was very surprised to find it there today (12th Feb) and am enjoying a bottle now... go get it!

Thanks Al. You're lucky to have scored this beer at this time. I had trouble adjusting to this beer when it came out but I loved it after a while. I may have to get some transfered to my store. :)

I noticed the LCBO at Spadina and Dundas in TO had a lot of stock as well last week.

Anyone have an idea as to how long this beer is good for? Cellaring a bottle right now as I haven't seen any lately but wondering if there's any point.

I had a few bottles in the fridge for over a year, and they aged real well. Think I still have one left, I'll have to look.

I had inserted comments here on Imperial Pumpking, but when I realised there was no review proper (i.e., in Beer Reviews) of this beer, I transferred my comments to that section.
