Has anyone ever seen any? Or did it just not happen?

    Didn't happen unless you brought it up yourself.

  • I hid mine wrapped in a couple t-shirts in my duffel bag. I could only find a couple anyway - I wish I could have brought more. Technically, smuggling, but totally worth it.

    You are allowed to cross the border with it, we visit the states and bring back beer and wine when we can. There is a personal exemption you can enter the country with. You can bring back a certain amount without needing to pay duty. Dogfish head no longer exports their beer up to Canada. A year ago we could get a limited number of brews in Alberta and BC. We were able to purchase 60 minute IPA, 90 minute IPA and some of the bigger bottles...but since Dogfish head entered litigation with Busch they have not been sending it North. We looked for it online within a six hour drive of Calgary and came up with nothing. They do not send it to Montana or Idaho apparently :( . My sister is in MA right now, maybe she can get us a bottle.

    Ive been looking like crazy.. nothing. Like mentioned above I find it stupid there are shipping issues, i could see if it were cases of it but one or two bottles is pretty stupid. Ive read somewheres before that its best to send through UPS or Fed Ex- not USPS.

    Love to get a bottle now, jumped on the bandwagon, and cant stop this PJ collecting addiction.


    Also for you canadian folk, HMV is selling SVT for $10. On HMV.ca check it out, under Pearl Jam of course... :lol: I hope to get mine today.

    My brother brought some back to Canada over the holidays. I've got a few bottles left I would be willing to part with. I'm not looking for cash. I would definitely be willing help out fellow Canadian fans if you want to trade. I'm in Ontario so PM me if you are looking for some.
    Cheers!
