Had that at Mondial. Pure quality, and a good sign that there might be even more Thornbridge releases down the line.

Looking forward to these. Both ranked as top examples of their styles on BA.

Great beer! Sure to be costly, though. It was $18 last time I got some in Quebec.

That's cool to see more Chrlevoix beers coming to Ontario. Too bad the Vache Folle line, which of the three or four I have had and were all awesome would probably never be allowed in the LCBO. I mean look at the label:

Wow! That is a spectacular beer. Those who haven't had it are going to love it!

Where did you pay 18 for Lupulus? Fresh, I paid 15, but it's been on sale in gatineau for as low as 8!

Definitely a great beer, curious to see how it would age, especially since the hops make this a really unique, complex offering. So great fresh!

$18 is definitely on the high end, I imagine though we see it around the $15 mark which is not that much cheaper.

Right now Lupulus is at about 12.99.

Picked up some Aramis DIPA from them today.

I recently had a Lupulus bottle that was about a year old...not terrible, of course, but I think it's so much better fresh.

Lupulus is a good one. Those living close to the Que. border are lucky. Looking forward to its arrival.
