Can't wait to see all of these in late summer!
All jokes aside, I'm pretty excited to see Vox Populi make it out here. Definitely a bunch I'm looking forward to.

Getting the Einbecker in fresh would be pretty neat.

A few of these already out.
Strong Patrick,cowbell hazy day,
The hazy day is decent, but to me tastes like a weaker version of Ransack

You have to apply pretty much 1 year in advance to have your beer released for the seasonal release. it ain't easy.BakaGaijin wrote:Why such shit all the time?!?
As an aside, 3 Fonteinen Armand & Gaston and Oude Geuze 750 mL were supposed to come in for springtime (shelf listing) except, somehow, 3F's cardboard box failed the lab. So we're now waiting for a re-testing of the cardboard box and we'll hopefully have it in for the summer

Hello Gleemer LCBO mangled your sku's for Oerbier and now they can't think outside the cardboard box!

yeah, we heard that from one client. Called the LCBO to fix it and I think they did finally figure it out.tyke66a wrote:Hello Gleemer LCBO mangled your sku's for Oerbier and now they can't think outside the cardboard box!

Is there a Summer list?
Probably LC's internal safety & integrity standards. Oh, the beers that have been box-shamed for trying to use less cardboard / be more Eco-friendly! We never saw Weltenburger Asam-Bock, ever again...BakaGaijin wrote:Was the cardbox pulp content mislabelled?!? Seems dubious.Gleemer Imports wrote:3F's cardboard box failed the lab.

Good to hear the Drie Fonteinen / 3Fs will hopefully still be here, thanks!!

But we're working on a large online order for 2021. Sadly, the cardboard issue/internal LCBO testing disrailed planned store distribution.
