Also, I bought another Black Butte. I know I said I wouldn’t, but it really is a beautiful beer, and it was staring at me wanting to go to my home, lol
I’m thinking I may end up buying another one as well....even though I said I wouldn’t. Just so good, and I keep thinking about it every know and then. Not sure how much longer my wallet can hold back my heart
Yes, we are pleased to announce that once again we have brought the legendary Thomas Hardy's Ale to LCBO shelves. We hope you enjoy it and look forward to seeing your reviews!
Cheers!

I drank a bottle this afternoon and it was glorious.
Approx how many bottles made it to stores?

what vintage was it? 2017? I heard all we got was the 2017 edition. did the brewery send the bottles by donkey?

I picked up a 2017 from Avenue and Lawrence. Some good in store clearance deals in there too!
Hope we get the 50th Anniversary 2018 vintage next year at least. Who is likely to brew it for the Italian owners of the recipe? This year it was Meantime in Greenwich but they are now owned by Asahi of Japan
On the less exciting side, an IPA from Creemore (ugh) and two new offerings from Side Launch (including their highly anticipated light lager ) that mean the death of the outstanding Mountain Lager (boo hoo). But a new German Pilsner from GLB offers hope - maybe it will become my go-to Ontario lager! (A little OT, but speaking of lagers, that new Czech one from Godspeed is just fantastic!)

You are right, Gdspeed is filling a gap, and they are doing so with passion
Glad to see he Brooklyn lager back. Also glad to see the Dad bod Pilsner make it to lcbo. Hopefully it’s a good sized batch. It would be great if it was a regular listing.

I bought one at Great Lakes but haven't had it yet. I love good pilsners. Given it is Great Lakes, I have high hopes for this one.

Brooklyn Lager is now being contract brewed in Guelph for CA market.
also Steam Whistle is contract brewing Fat Tire Amber Ale for New Belgium (I guess this is coming to LCBO later this year?). cans are now getting the San Pellegrino treatment....
