Nice - hot off winning a couple of awards for their RIS, they announced on Facebook that it will be a full time release at the LCBO starting this summer.
I like that.

it is an excellent foreign extra stout, but the cans are indeed tacky.

The terrible can combined with the odd timing for the release of a RIS could make sales slow out of the gate. But best of luck to them. It is a solid beer.matt7215 wrote:hopefully they re-do the can design

The label does look like it shrunk in the wash. Is that Bruce Dickinson in the picture?

Thanks for the info. Seemed obvious, but you never know. We have a lot to look forward to in Ontario over the coming months.Cale wrote:From their last newsletter:

The entire Wellington line-up is getting a redesign (cans, bottles, boxes), not just the RIS.

Wow, a sign of the apocalypse. Can't wait for more cool developments, I'm sure the guys know how to brew interesting stuff up there.

Hopefully not the Iron Duke strong ale! That on cask Mattias is the best thing they make - yes better than Welly RIS on cask.MatttthewGeorge wrote:Nope, the Duke is getting the boot... literally.matt7215 wrote:no more dead white guy stuff?MatttthewGeorge wrote:The entire Wellington line-up is getting a redesign (cans, bottles, boxes), not just the RIS.

Has anybody seen the RIS at the 'BO yet? It was supposed to hit stores on Friday.
