    The last one is disappointing.
    Little to no distro within their own state but they can be found in NY and now the evil empire is going to carry them?
    Good for the brewery, I guess.

    4D is probably the highlight for me. Really interested to try it. Chaman will be nothing new to most BAs close to Quebec, same with Trois Mousquetaires. HopWired is a great beer but I don't know how it'll travel. A few other good releases on there too. No complaints.

    Is that BA4D or regular, and which Panil is it? :confused:

    Regular 4D would be my guess.
    I WAS going to BIF an Ontarian without access to K some of this. Not now. :confused:

    It's a Kuhnehnn knockoff called Kehnhenn!

    Forum on BT said it was DEFINITELY not the BA version.

    No indicationon the Panil, but I'd be willing to assume it's the Sour version we've been getting the last few years.

    Wow the 8 Wired is cheaper than Alberta, an awesome IPA with all hops from down under.

    I know Michigan isn't far but isn't this a first for Kuhnhenn? That should count for something. If Long Trail had a barrel-aged beer at the SAQ, i'd be all over it. Yes, not every beer is a winner but i've heard good things about 8 Wired & Thornbridge. I would sure like to have a few of those, even if seasonal, over here. I wish the SAQ would take a page from LCBO's book and do this kind of seasonal releases (although they have slightly stepped it up in the last few years).

    Noticed that some are starting to show up in stores, the Panil and Lakefront Bridge Burner for example.
