Re: LCBO Online Exclusives
Thanks for the response. I agree, many online exclusives usually drop quietly with little fanfare. It would be nice to see 3F on shelves as a more regular occurrence, here's hoping they find a suitable case one day. you can't ask for a more proactive client than 3 Fonteinen. They'll figure it out. ...

Re: LCBO Online Exclusives
Looking at their online exclusive category, it looks pretty pathetic and nothing is available There hasn't been a whole lot going on with online exclusives for a while. I think with the loosened booze restrictions Keep6 and others are moving things through non-LCBO channels now. Since they can't co...

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
[quote="Ukie"]Liefmans goudenband........ Not really a new arrival, but a new price? $32.00 a bottle $384.00 a case 14% ABV. I'm confused is this the Flemish sour brown ale we have had before or a higher octane version or a LCBO mistake? Look at the ABV on the listing. It's an LCBO error. ...

Re: LCBO Online Exclusives
I'm referring to restaurants getting the right to sell alcohol to go during COVID. For instance, Keep6 is still importing exclusive beer/wine/spirits, but selling it through their bars other non-LCBO bottle shops. Previously Keep6 would sell many of these imports as LCBO Online Exclusives. Oh. I th...

Re: Orval the hills and far away...
This batch didn't strike me a especially different. But if memory serves, we wouldn't normally see Orval quite so fresh. More Brett is always a good thing, let's hope it builds up to a sweet spot in the coming months. (And we see more batches). My favorite Orval is most the bright, dry and firm 'fr...

Re: New Arrivals at LCBO & TBS
I happened upon St-Feuillien Saison the other day. It doesn't seem to be listed online yet but it's fresh and drinking mighty fine. I think this is my favourite saison. In our opinion? Fantome Saison's one of the best, but it's far from classic. It's weird and wonderful. Dupont is still the best ba...

Re: De Dolle Stille Nacht
Stille Nacht should start to appear on shelves by next week. First bottle of this. wonderful. The kind of BSA I do not tire of, probably favor this over Chimay Bleu, Rochefort 8 and the like (which are of course great in themselves.) Thank you Gleemer for your assiduous curatorship of these exempla...

Re: Local Brett Brews
After downing a fantastic Brettal Head this weekend I got to wondering about where I can score some similarly bretty ales. Any advice? I recall Burdock used to do some really good stuff with Brett, anyone else? Burdock (regularity) Reverence Barrel Works Left Field just released a brett IPA, i beli...
