Thanks for the heads up, I've like their beers in the past. Will check out at least half of these.
I used to sell beer. Now I don't.
Same, solid brewery, especially their stouts and porters- luckily this release seems to be mostly that.

Thanks for the heads up! Justy made my order as well.
Only around 20 bottles left of the baltic porter and two of the imperial stouts.
40+ left of the other two imperial stouts and the gose.

baltic Porter is gone....
A bunch of holiday packs appeared on the LCBO website today. Some under gift & sampler packs but more to be found if you search keywords (stout, porter...) and view them with "new arrivals" first. New Welly stout pack with 2 glasses and the Collective Arts Origin of Darkness collab with Bellwoods is on there too. The usual suspects as far as I can see for Belgium, though.
There was a really good Belgian mix pack that came out last year (I think?) and hope that comes out again.
I think I recall that one, it had some Dupont variants, a lambic, and a couple other interesting ones I'd never tried before.
I'm also hoping to see some Samuel Smith's and O'Hara's back, I drank a lot of that nitro stout from the latter last year.
It was definitely a nice surprise. Going back through my notes I think it was actually two years ago, but the past few years have definitely blurred together lol
I think the others in there were from Het Anker, but I never took a picture of the box. I just have a bunch of check-ins for various Belgian beers around that time.
OOOooOOOOohhh! Carolus Christmas! (Can't remember how to properly add URLs.)

Awesome! Fingers crossed they bring back the Cuvee Van de Keizer as well - I really do miss that beer.
Yes, it's great, but also a huge sugar bomb. It's lovely and all, but I have a hard time finishing the 750ml bottle, so it's got to be shared. Anyways, I dont think I've ever had a bad beer from Het Anker.....maybe some of the weaker ones in their christams mix pack, which were thankfully replaced in the last few years.
What I really want to know is whether the LCBO is planning to bring back any glassware this year. The last 5 or so years there's been very little of that. Would love a good Chimay or Rochefort glass.
This is listed on the website, maybe it’s coming this year?
