Thanks for posting Cass!
Nice to see Ola Dubh back, I was just thinking about it just the other day.
Looking towards trying the Black Ball and O'Leerie Stout.
Other than that ........!
Actually the Collective Arts #4 but I can get that here.
Oh and the Dragons Milk for sure.

I didn't even know Van de Keizer did a red. Definitely want one of those.
Roundhouse Kick looks like good value, never had it. Love the format/price for the style.
Dragons Milk, yay. Always welcome.

A few nice ones. The last time I had Paulaner Wiesen was Auf'm Wiesen... a tour of duty in the beer tents 13 years ago. and the next day? Woozy from Wiesn Bier. This picture doesn't convey how loud and crowded this thing is.
The Vitus WeizenBock is excellent. Bottle I had was well-aged yet amazing.

less and less interest in what the LCBO stocks compared to brewery releases in Toronto as the year goes on ..
They have such a passionate and innovative way of selling exciting beer to a receptive market.rfrf wrote:less and less interest in what the LCBO stocks compared to brewery releases in Toronto as the year goes on ..
I don't know how the Board manages this brilliant work with so few staff and so little financial resource!

too bad we cant get Dragons Milk in the smaller size format (they have it in 4 packs in the states)
I guess Great Divide Yeti is part of the winter release?

Wish we could trade the St Ambroise Citrouille for the RIS or Vintage or something. Or that barrel-aged scotch ale.
No joke, there were still 4 packs of St. Ambroise Pumpkin from the last Halloween release gathering dust at my local store up until last week. $4.95 per pack, which would actually be a really good deal if it weren't a pumpkin beer that had passed its BBD a minimum of two months ago.

I will be loading up on Vitus, such a magnificent beer.

Agreed. I made the mistake of only grabbing 2 last time it was here, before it was gone.

Same thing with Omnipollo I believe. That's the Craft Brand Co. guys - they're contract brewing their repped brands locally at their own brewery.JerCraigs wrote:BRUNSWICK BIER WORKS INC | Weihenstephan Vitus | 3.95 | 500 | 7.7

Wow, that's crazy. I've had the Omnipollo, it's good. But doing a craft IPA, and doing a top beer from one of the oldest breweries in the world are two very different things. If this can be pulled off well, that would be a very exciting development indeed.
