everytime i manage to make it down to the big lcbo on the other end of town they have nothing left! Okocim porter, sam smith's winter welcome, suffolk strong etc etc. all empty!

So my friend picked up a chimay red and i got a can of Suffolk Abbot and a bottle of that IG 2006 which i'm going to try to keep until next year.




Luckily, i'm headed back that direction to trade in some ski boots (too big!) so i will pop in and fight like the dickens to obtain any okocim porter or winter welcome.

the lcbo closer to me has good stuff, but i've purchased all their offerings numerous times. They do have a constant supply of Hockley and london pride which is good.


lcbo woes!

There's plenty of Corona and Canadian on the shelf at the LCBO near me. Nice and chilled too. :lol:

actually, i found out there's apparently 2 more lcbos in town, relatively close by. however, according to their directions, it makes NO sense where they are. i might go on a hunt tomorrow.

I have even found the Queens Quay outlet spotty in recent months. It's really annoying to go out of you're way for empty shelves or worse, spoiled product because it is improperly handled.
