anyone else manage to snag some of the goose bourbon county stout that seemingly randomly appeared on the lcbo website last week?

My mistake on the other thread.

Armand and Gaston will be an online exclusive. $11.95.

The Sazerac Whiskey release was this morning at 8:30. They changed it from being an auction to first come first served this time for some reason.

Anywho, the online ordering system is still down at about 10.

Those particular bourbons aren’t usually auctioned, although I’m not sure why they went with the VSO site this time around when they used the main LCBO site last time (and even shipped a bunch to stores too).

Many of those whiskies usually show up on the spring lotto for Buffalo Trace, and (in theory, at least) everyone gets a fair shot at them. The live bourbon special releases on Vintages never go well, and today was a horror, so much so the they suspended the release, and will re-offer it again, presumably in a different format.

Can't say I was surprised; the way Vintages treated beer releases did quite a good job of reminding me that the LCBO cares about wine, and wine only.

Not into spirits, but just got an email from the LCBO for the re-release of Sazerac on November 24th at 8:30.

The SAQ seems to have had issues with lotteries, but seems like it's been taken care of more recently.

Did they say what's coming? I noticed there's some Sazerac Rye in store near me, so I decided to grab a bottle as I've actually never had it. Not sure if that's typically available though, or just kicking around from the release a couple weeks ago.
