    Are they usually quick to answer? Sent an email early PM to order one case delivered in Hawkesbury and haven't heard back...

    not the Keep6 representative, but the beer would be for pick-up from their Toronto location.

    again, unless hoser knows something i don't know, it was a VERY small batch release and i don't think you'll see this anywhere other than this Toronto release.

    Asked the question on their Facebook page. It's available at their pub also but not for distribution. Might try to make the trip or otherwise, ISO...

    It's kinda lame that they make a beer that is for distro somewhere else, but not in their own province...

    Considering the relationship that TDD has with Bar Volo I would say this makes a lot of sense. It's a brewery that Keep6 reps and it was for Volo's anniversary. Lots of breweries make a one off product for a bar or store or market that isn't their own.

    Maybe but remembering where you're from and the fans that brought you there also weighs in the balance.

    That said, it is available at TDD's pub...

    Yeah, for me there's a difference between doing a special beer for a bar event, sold at the said place (which is fine, really), and finally allowing some distro to customers without doing the same for your local fan base.

    Hoser always gets personal samples, this product will not be for sale outside Volo.

    Hey hoser,
    I hope the day finds you well and that you had a fantastic Halloween.
    Just a small curiosity question for ya.... have I mentioned recently how amazingly awesome you are in every way possible? I'm not sucking up or anything like that I just can't remember for the life of me. I know it goes without saying that you are most likely the greatest person alive under 40 in the Canadian beer industry but I can't remember telling you lately.
    Well either way I'd love to share some of my beer with you in the future in a attempt to show my appreciation for your awesomeness.
    Cheers

    Thanks Chris, as to sharing beers a good buddy of mine is here from Japan at Christmas for a small tasting, I believe you met him.

    If anyone is going to the Willow Park Beer festival there is a pretty awesome basket of rare barrel aged treats from Le Trou du Diable and Dieu du Ciel on the silent auction table with some cool swag, good luck if you are bidding. All the proceeds go to charity.
