    For real! BC seems to have a better TDD selection than Montreal

    It's $28 a bottle IIRC. Is it worth that much? I've been avoiding it at that price...

    I think I found it at 24 at 16th. Very tasty, but not cheap.

    I can't see it being worth that price (not that it stops suckers like me from buying one.) It's hard to turn down those long time wants.

    $28 is a bit steep. If it was a long time want, sure...but having had it already, I likely wouldn't pay >$18 for it.

    I bought it, but skipped some if their other offerings (did buy succubus) based on the price. It was worth it for the one time, but I can find other offerings as good for much less. Find TDD to be a bit expensive across their whole line, especially when compared against DDC.

    Looking like the final number is 33 boxes (includes 2 each from Kump and I). Breakdown as follows:

    BC - 11
    SK - 1
    MB - 2
    ON - 11
    QC - 7
    NB - 1

    LOL on Bretteuse. Was only able to get my hands on 1 bottle here and i had to trade for it. Stuff sells out within a day.

    Damon is doing a fantastic job on the pairings. BTW, this is going to be the biggest CANBIF to date with 33 boxes!

    Are we talking the barrel aged or regular version?

    Wow, well at least I can say we don't get the barrel aged either...

    Isn't Bretteuse only barrel-aged?

    Yes, you're right - I was confusing it with La Buteuse which has both a regular and barrel aged version. We only get the regular La Buteuse.

    Pairings are now finalized and we were successful in avoiding any intra-provincial trades. PM's will start going out today at some point notifiying you of your trading partner.
