Dave, they're back at my LHBS...

My understanding is that Munton's owns them now so most Munton's distributors and retailers should carry them.

My lhbs guy said his supplier has discontinued these. He bought the cans that were left for himself, and he gave me one.(all it's going to cost is a 6pack when it's ready) I will replace the sugar with dme thanks for the heads up.

Well, I finally tried one last night. Bottled 7/22 and still green as hell. I really kind of expected that, I'm hoping that it'll be ready by 10/24 for my 30th anniversary. I think it will be at least not still be green. Probably be better on turkey day though. Now having said all that aside from being green the beer was really good, and boy was/is it strong!

Last time I was at my LHBS (AiH) I was looking at getting a can of Grand Cru. The date was good. I didnt pick it up because the instructions on the can were confusing as heck. Downloaded their chart and even that took awhile to decipher. I wonder how many people migrating from MrB have screwed that one up?

The dates are good but these were from my lhbs he said they were discontinued I got 1 more then that's it. I don't use the yeast under the lid anyway. High abv so I use a whole pack of belle saison instead.

Yes, the instructions are confusing.
