We've seen quite a few releases at LCBO during the last years but this is one great brand that's been missing. Anybody knows why is that?

Sorry, Manul, I've no idea why the Fuller's line isn't made available here. It certainly should be.

I remember when it was on tap and available through the LCBO. I used to enjoy a pint of Fuller's ESB at the local pub. Then one day it was gone. I probably have the story wrong, which itself may not have been right in the first place, but the barmaid told me something along the lines that Upper Canada had a hand in bringing the Fuller's beers to Canada, and for some reason that was no longer going to happen (other Bartowelers can probably give the correct story). It might have been around the time that Upper Canada first started getting into financial trouble.

Anyhoo, this was before Boddington's/Caffrey's/< insert nitro'd Anglo beer here > became so ubiquitous.
