Mark the Thor's Hammer is really good, but I'm not liking this year's oddity as much as last year's.

I can't wait to try the Thor's hammer. I wanted to but two and age one but sadly they just had the one.

Way off-topic, but go to Tide & Boar, they'll have Cletic Knot, and hopefully this gem (if there's any left):

Attention all Beer Geeks, Craft Beer Lovers, and anyone else who have enjoyed a beer at last once in there life!!
We just tapped an amazing beer from Grimross Brewing Co. in Fredericton New Brunswick. Chantelope is a "Wild Beer", meaning it is fermented using a wild yeast called Brettanomyces.
Beyond that it is a Belgian Style beer, it is well balanced, similar to a Belgian Saison.
- Yeast = Brettanomyces Bruxellencis
- Similar grain bill as Cheval D'Or = Pilsner, Rye and Wheat malts
- Hops = Amarillo, Tettnang and Saaz
- 4 weeks from mash to keg
- 6.7% ABV
- 20 IBU
- 3.9 SRM
Appearance - Light gold with slight hazyness.
Aroma - Combination of floral, grass and straw.
Taste - Reminds of a rustic Saison, with slight tart lemon in the finish and low hopiness.
Overall - Well balanced and refreshing beer.

Ivehad hit or miss at the tide and bore, I've been probably 20 times and about a quarter of the times I've been there either the service has been absolute shit, slow to get seats even slower to get drinks and menus. But the rest of the time the foods been good and t he beers been great

Tomorrow would be awesome, however, picaroons is saying wednesday which will suck for me as i'm driving to North Sydney.

My fingers are crossed for tuesday!!

[chalmers]

Good luck to all, and wear a cup!

I'd strongly consider full S.W.A.T. gear, if available.

[BasilD]

I can't see it being that bad this year, considering Marky can't clean out the moncton stores...

Hmm, I wonder if that means it's ready to be sold when the doors open at 10am?

the guy was saying that it will take some time, they are getting 14% of the stock at that 1 store alone, so he thought that it would take sometime to get it all on the shelves. The truck will get there later tonight. I was asking since I am swinging through moncton on wednesday.

11,000 bottles in total are being distributed to the four stores, so 1540 bottles at that store will definitely take some time. I'm still guessing it will still be Wednesday.

I'm hoping to hit prospect street close to opening tomorrow. I'll post regarding the madness afterwards. Unless I get trampled that is.

[CurtisD]

I just picked up a variety of about 30 bottles at the Dieppe Regis St store. Very quiet...I was the only one looking at that section. Tall cans were $3, all the bottles I bought were $6 (mix of 650ml and 500ml).

I may stop into the Vaughan Harvey store tomorrow if I have time to see what else is there, but I won't be heartbroken if I don't.

[mcgster]

I went to the KV store this morning and the guy had no idea what i was talking about... anyone hear anything about the SJ batch?

[BasilD]

the rothsay store has the product now... but it will only hit shelves tomorrow morning.

[CurtisD]

Selection at Regis St was almost exclusively BC beers (Driftwood, Russell, Cannery, Hoyne), with a couple of Quebec ones as well (more Charlevoix, La Neufrageur, Brasseurs du Monde, and two more Trou Du Diable), plus some Double Trouble and Wellington Dark. Didn't see much in the way of 6- or 12- packs.

I suppose I will still try to hit VH tomorrow in search of more Quebec and Ontario stuff.

Yep, it was on its own shelf, where they normally stock the Picaroons.

[CurtisD]

Stopped in at the VH store this morning just after they opened...pretty calm, maybe 10 people with carts and lots of staff?

More variety than the Dieppe store so I picked up a few more things. All in all I'm pretty pleased with the haul!

[canuck]

Strangely enough, it was extremely quiet this morning at the KV store......just myself and a couple other guys. Selection was great and I picked up a wide variety of beers.

[dean2k]

Nice haul guys.

[CurtisD]

Nice haul, Shane.

I think I ended up with 46 different beers between my two stops, but they're all boxed up and in the "cellar" at this point, so no photos, haha. Lots of IPA/Double IPA so I'd better get to them soon, though....

That's a great haul, Curtis!

At $362, I spent WAY more than I had intended on!
