A&T

Referring more to the cases sold to go

 

There's a few of us in Ontario that have some still but a lot of my friends drank it up not knowing the value.

 

True, but most stayed overseas I assume?

 

when it comes to these rare lambics, I'm surprised more people aren't willing to ship overseas. yeah it's more costly but when you consider the opportunity cost of not having to trade quite so many of your valuable bottles, it makes sense.

 

Shhhhhh.

 

It hit Australia in 2012.

 

Tell us again, why does Canada get so much of these types of releases? Entirely half of the bottles produced went to Canada? And why Ontario/Alberta and not Quebec, which I actually visit once in a while?

 

I'm not really sure, however I know one thing - it's started to dry up. That is, this was the first year that the Cantillon we got this spring in Alberta was one case per store, sold 1 bottle per customer, and sold out in a day. So, it's starting to sadly look much like the U.S. side now for hard-to-get lambic. I'm hearing the same stories in QC and BC when it comes to Cantillon too...

 

Probably 'cause it's all getting stolen from the brewery even before it gets onto a container ship.

 

I recently traded a bottle for a CFH '14. I have a couple more bottles, but I think I'll hold on to them as the value is going nowhere but up. I still wish I had bought more when it hit Ontario but by the time I realized what it was, it was long gone.

 

Is it really that Canada gets more, or its just spread much more thin in the US? I cant imagine they are getting a bunch of Loons in the Yukon.

 

How does A&T compare to Hommage since the recent release. I'm guessing about even? Any input?

 

Having traded for both Hommage was easier to get. Trades mainly consisted of De Garde multiples. Specifically, Hommage was for Imperial Hop Bu + Brun Marron + Feral One, and A&T was for Brun Marron, Saison Desay Blends 1-3, BBPt5, and Black Note.

 

A&T is painfully good. as bottles are drank and numbers dwindle, no way this will not become more rare.
