375 LPK?

If you didn't have me on ignore you'd see I already asked that

Just love me.

 

[CSO]

375s of LPK??

375 LPK?

 

[LuxWanderer]

They have 750's and 375's of LPK to drink on site

That is a good idea for onsite on their part. Would love to be able to buy splits so I can drink a couple different things instead of choosing 1.

I do enjoy dropping the last couple pours from 750s on other visitors who would not otherwise buy them though

Nooooooooooo

 

[SecretSquirrel]

Was a Vig a small batch this year ('15) then?

Probably just not labeled, and are thus not for sale currently more than sold out.

they do that all the time. stick around for the afternoon

 

[The Red Viper]

I was there until like 2-4, no chance in the availability. Will be back tomorrow, fingers crossed...

By the way I was wrong, GCB magnums were also sold out when I asked for one.

Still no specialty bottles at Cantillon today, and Kriek is now sold out too. Only gueuze and Rose available (limits of 6 and 3 respectively for 75cl, 12 and 3 for 37.5cl).

are the Gueuze and Rose 15 bottle dates?

Pretty sure Rose is 16 and Gueuze 15 but I haven't actually checked the bottles I got because they're taped up in those cardboard boxes for now.

Hope you are killing it with the on-site game, I'm tempted to plan another trip just for that.

Yes, just hanging out in the place and enjoying the onsite list is amazing! Granted I am insanely spoiled and make it there 6+ times a year, but...

Box of geuze I bought last week were bottled October 7th. The on-site list indeed is amazing right now. Carignan 2015 is so delicious

I keep hoping for a October 25th bottling. Gonna have to have a friend of JVR put in a good word for this year

I was there back in the fall and they had had FF earlier, but only had gueuze and RdG when I was there. A few weeks later, they had FF again. On site was amazing, but I was a bit disappointed. Then again, these days, classic gueuze and RdG are pretty hard to come by around here.

The memory of drinking great on-site beers at places like Cantillon for me far surpass the ability of bringing the bottle(s) home.

Man my luck was I'm recovering from a cold right when I was in Brussels and congested. So yeah I drank some cool stuff but I only halfway tasted any of it.

But the on site list was mostly the same stuff that was available when I was there a year ago. Carignan was the only really exciting new addition.

 

[The Red Viper]

I checked and the bottle dates of the Rosé bottles Cantillon has now are January 11, 2016 for 37.5cl and January 26, 2016 for 75cl.

Latest rumor is that as of today they'll stop selling seasonal at the brewery because of the stupendously high internet market prices. Everything that's left now will be exported. Don't know if it's true though as this move would probably raise the prices even more...

This was likely to happen. Last week they lowered the limit on special bottles to 1pp. I really don't mind. I love going to that place, but I really feel for the Cantillon lovers. We're paying the price for those ******** who try to make money out of someone else's hard work.

I do not see how this will stop the secondary market though. Same thing will happen in the US. Id be really surprised if this was the new policy.

I know. I also don't mind going to Cantillon to drink a FF or a LPK, but nothing beats drinking a FF in the comfort of my own living room or garden...

That's the most hilarious post i've seen this year. Jean-pierre would never ever stop selling bottles in belgium and export them only. Even if Jean want's it.

He would never stop selling seasonal lambic in their original country. What a joke
