The return of a classic in Westmalle Dubbel and debut of a bourbon barrel aged quad and a new Schneider Tap X is just fine by me!

None. They are paid programs.

This release gives me a bit of a boner. I like a lot of what I see there... especially things that will now be in cans.PeenSteen wrote:Westmalle Dubbel

The Anti-IPA, and basically really good. Older bottlings aged magnificently beyond the BBD, I've heard recent ones don't.lister wrote:Westmalle Dubbel!!!

LCBO listing says "Pale" ale, but the announcement on Canadian Beer News http://www.canadianbeernews.com/2016/08 ... g-to-lcbo/ with a picture of the can says "Special" ale.GtownRandy wrote:Across The Pond English Pale Ale
Regardless, maybe importers like esprit, R&R, keep6 should participate in the tasting program. I understand having done this for Black Oak that this costs money and doesn't always translate into sales, but it sucks not having Dupont.MatttthewGeorge wrote:None. They are paid programs.
