$7.75. Noticed them a few weeks back. Now bring back the bombers of Maudite and get Trois Pistoles in as well!

It's great to be able to get in in that format, but it's about A LOT more expensive than buying the bottles at the Beer Store.
$7.75 / 0.750 l = $10.33 per litre for the corked bottle at the LCBO
13.95 / (6 * 0.341) = $6.81 per litre for the 6-pack at the Beer Store
This is one rare case where the notoriously expensive Newfoundland Liquor Corporation, who only import the corked bottle, is actually cheeper than the LCBO, at $6.50 for 750 ml.
Still, I do love the caged and corked bottle, but not enough to pay THAT much more.

That's too bad, Fin du Monde used to be a good deal at the LCBO. Looks like Gatineau will keep getting my business!

i've been told that, from experience, the bombers age a hell of a lot better.
