LCBO 2013 Fall/Halloween/Quebec Feature Craft Beer Release

Thanks for confirming the price. Think I'll grab some when I'm in Oregon on Monday. Even with my industry discount, it's still a lot of money!

 

I'm sure it is much cheaper there without our import duties etc.

 

Oh for sure. If I wasn't off the the US next week, I would have bitten the bullet and gotten them at 16th St, but as it is now, I can get an almost 2 for 1 deal :-)

 

I signed up for twitter *exclusively* to watch for tweets from legacy / brewery creek / 16th street liquor store, and I still managed to miss that one. Thanks for the backup! I'll check in at Legacy tonight, and if no luck head up to BC later.

 

I only care about the Black Butte and Pumking. The rest I may dabble.... the BB and P I will hoard.

 

@Lurkaholic they also have the new Driftwood Gose.

Sorry ON BA's for highjacking this thread - in terms of your new releases I'm jealous of your getting these 2 in which I have not found out west:

Les Trois Mousquetaires Porter Baltique​

La Vache Folle Imperial Milk Stout​

 

Or i need to learn how to read slower

 

Nah, I'll go with your quote of "the joys of online posting".

 

Around when does the Halloween stuff usually get released? I'll have to make a trip to Ontario for some of those pumpkin beers! My arms should both be unbroken by that time

 

Some are starting to show stock now, like the Black Creek, other listings could be leftovers from last year

 

The Sam Smith Organic Chocolate Stout is sickly sweet. Just sayin'.

 

Sounds like that's right up my alley. If it's a stout and it's sweet, i'm on it like white on rice

 

indeed. Some people love it. But not me.

 

Does Samuel Smith's Stingo ever make it to Canada?

 

It was in Alberta at one time but according to the catalogue it isn't available at the warehouse level anymore. There are a couple stores that might have stock though but it would be pretty old.

 

Pretty sure I saw Samuel Smith's Stingo at Brewery Creek in Vancouver last week and I've have seen it around before. It's going for about $11.00 a bottle.

 

Yup, 11.25

 

I've honestly pondered a trip to Rochester to catch a Bulldogs game and to see if I can pickup a bottle there. The Stingo is one of the few Sam Smith brew's I've yet to try and want to. Good to see the Chocolate Stout is here. I picked up the organic pale just recently. Intrigued at how it compares to the exceptional non-organic pale.

 

I always look forward to Brooklyn Post Road. I enjoy pumpkin ale with i higher level of spices and Post Road fits the bill nicely. And the price tag is fair also.

 

If anyone wants to do a locals(quebec) for some of the list (not the quebec feature of course). I would be happy with a nice box!
