Shocking news. It's quite good, maybe not 19 USA dollars good but we will see - I'm just really impressed somebody allowed California IPA to happen in Ontario. What next - freedom to vote? Can we soon leave and re-enter Canada?

Damn, that might kill my "don't buy from the LCBO in 2012" resolution.

This is pretty sweet. This is one of my favourite IPA's. In NY state the prices of Green Flash's beer are good.

Ahh the six-pack at Village Beer Market was somewhat less charitably-priced. Not that I minded to try it! There's a lot of price variance around The Buff on some beers, maybe 15 a six is the usual deal for the GFIPA.

I guess these will be priced/sold as singles as well? (since it's an open top 4 pack holder)

Wonder if they'll go through as the "2$ Domestic beer" :D

From NAC:

Aug 7 - We have Green Flash West Coast IPA that lands at the Lcbo warehouse today!

I think we should see it hitting stores by next week.
