Re: Better than a pot of gold
That's in Ontario! (Canada for those who don't know)
The Beer Store (formerly known as Brewer's Retail) is the only place where you can buy beer (besides some brands carried by the liquor stores) in Ontario. Corner stores are not (yet) allowed to sell beer.Peace through fear... since 1947!

Re: Better than a pot of gold
I don't know the history behind it, but there were two distinct store types created.

The Beer Store sells all kinds of brands of beer, probably more than a hundred.
Oh imagine that... Wikipedia has it all covered... why even try

Re: Better than a pot of gold
lol....america by no means makes the best beer. and i think most beer drinkers know that. We just take what is cheapest, unless its a family gathering.
that sounds like a good idea trooper.

Re: Better than a pot of gold
No. It's sad that foreigners think that Bud, Coors, Miller, etc... are actually beers to be considered. People from other countries don't realize that it's just bottled pisswater that we give to rednecks to keep them happy. Originally Posted by icky

That's like saying that Moosehead is Canadian beer.
Or Corona is Mexican beer.
Oh, and as to The Beer Store? I think it's a shame that you let your government control your beer like that. I mean, we let our government control interest rates and let them fiddle with the value of the dollar, but we would NEVER let them control our beer!!!Become a supporting member!

Re: Better than a pot of gold
I'm really not a beer bigot. I drink anything. I had 8 different brands with me on my recent camping trip/party (yes, seriously). American beer has just been a target of light-hearted jabs since I was a kid, probably because of the better known brands and their lower alcohol content.
