All coming to the LC

Thank God, I can finally talk about the Cameron's Cognac Barrel RPA...Been waiting for months for this...

Any mention of when?

This thread is a great idea. I appreciate all those who post these new releases and when certain stores get them before others. Looking forward to those that PeenSteen posted earlier.

the Bourbon doppelbock and Cognac SPA were on the shelves at Queen's Quay this morning-very few bottles were out though.

i heard a rumor that there's some fancy new beer West beer coming out? people are lining up for it or something crazy like that. costs like a million dollars, but apparently when you taste it you see jesus and jizz in your pants. not sure if those two are related.

1) I see Jesus in all kinds of places - soup kitchens, homeless shelters, community outreach at church.

2) that kind of money is WAY too much just to jizz in my pants. I can do that for free.

I wish they were just releasing regular RPA.

It is nice to see Cameron's branching out. For the longest time I've just relegated them to the back burners of Ontario craft.

+1
Hopefully the $12.95 ea for these was well spent.
Proud if myself today though. Walked right past the two Trafalgar releases. Usually I suck myself into trying everything once. Didn't do it this time for them.

Nickelbrook BA Cuvee might be on the shelves next week according to their twitter!

I think now that it's a permanent beer with Cameron's I don't think it'll take long for them to get it in there. Although, it seems as though the 'BO love affair with IPAs might be fading and they are starting an affair with barrel aged beers.

Still, I'm no insider, but willing to bet the wheels are turning on that one.

I disagree. More likely they are just awaiting a more appropriate "summer" launch. Likely see it in spring?

I'm no insider but when the sign at the brewery says "get it here first" something must be in the works. Or would that just mean before bars?

I heard Westvleteren 12 is at the LCBO.

It sounds like we agree. I don't think the RPA's coming out soon, but do think that it'll be in the LCBO eventually. Maybe as a seasonal first, then hopefully as a regular.

That'd be nice to see. I missed out on getting to try the RPA. No one had it on tap in the Guelph region (at least not that I heard about).
