Summer Beer Release (LCBO) [General]
2008 Jun 4
But here is my guess ... yet another boring Euro-lager completely indistinguishable from 25 other ones on their shelf. Probably from Poland or Ukraine. Yup, like we really need another Polish or Ukrainian lager. And believe me, as 1/4 Pollock and 1/4 Ukrainian it pains me to mock their beer thusly.

Oh we're certainly getting some good old fashioned soviet lagers (they're calling it an "ethnic beer release", but here's the list of stuff that has been hitting shelves in Southern Ontario:
Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen-Mix (2.5% - $1.95/330 ml - LCBO 63511)
Great Lakes Orange Peel (5.3% - $4.95/650 ml - LCBO 615633)
Wells Bombardier Burning Gold (4.7% - $TBA/568 ml - LCBO 74484)
Christoffel Bier (6.0% - $2.80/330 ml - LCBO 696955)
Chapeau Lemon (3.5% - $2.40/250 ml - LCBO 76034)
Chapeau Kriek (3.5% - $2.10/250 ml - LCBO 76117)
Brussels White (4.8% - $TBA/TBA ml - LCBO 411157)
St Peter's Golden Ale (4.7% - $TBA/500 ml - LCBO #TBA)
Grolsch Weizen (5.5% - $2.75/473 ml - LCBO 73734)
Unibroue Ephemere Apple (5.5% - $5.25/750 ml - LCBO 692574)

I spotted the Great Lakes and Chapeau Lemon briefly on the LCBO site for Ottawa Rideau, but it disapeared within a day. Rogue Dead Guy, ST IPA and Dogfish 60 will be hitting shelves over the next couple months as well.
