All the more reason to shake the tree if the ANBL while this is still in recent memory and get them to bring in some new product. There's obviously demand for it, at least in the 3 cities this release happened in.

If he bought up a lot of available stock, I'd be pissed as too, regardless of ANBL...
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:

For sure....it is the system that was the problem. The newspaper article the other day even said the craft segment was up 17% last year in NB, with a mediocre selection. Hell, the speed with which the Unibroue stuff sold should clue them in to the demand here.

Unfortunately most government orgs are immune to subtle hints. :lol:

Yeah, looks like you got a nice selection there! That Lug Tread is something I would love to see on tap out here for patio & BBQ season.

Epic! Proud and jealous, all at the same time.
