Propeller ESB Heading to LCBO

Hearing this news last night, and confirming it with Roland and Russell today, has me all excited.

Propeller Brewing Co. is one of my favourite breweries in Canada. They pump out some terrific beers, staying consistent with each batch brewed. When I lived in Halifax I was a regular customer, frequently walking home from the brewery with two growlers tucked under my arms. I have a sentimental attachment to the brewery and the beers, so being able to head to my local LCBO for a six pack of the Extra Special Bitter is exciting.

When exactly is it coming? It is set to be released this summer, retailing at $13.50 for a six pack of 341 ml bottles.

* What an ugly floor eh? Shiny though.

Propeller makes very good beer. I love their Porter.

Hopefully it's a successful venture that will soon see more of their products in Ontario!

I think the ESB will do great here in Ontario. Getting their IPA, Russian Imperial Stout, and Porter would be nice.

Troy, how long until my other reason for going to Nova Scotia, Garrison, makes its way to our province?

I love how Propeller is the only product whose distinctive logo isn't blurred out in Trailer Park Boys!
