Ahh wonderful its usually just...Queers shite and Molson "an insult to" Canadians(s) I will never understand why Queers shite is the biggest seeling beer... whats wrong with people! :eek:
its good ice cold, they drink in the summer,the BBQ and patio is where they prerfer to drink.... Stronger tasting beers are made, have been made and very few make big inroads with the consumers.. they just don't buy enough As ales are easier and cheaper to make than lagers... the breweris have tried... try Molson export... orginally an ale ( and still is)... now its hard to tell it apart form a lager It intresting to find that the popular German wiess (white or wheat) beer has IMHO done the best job of gaining popularity in the NA main stream ( a beer that's a bigger pain in arse to make than lager) |

Fine, I don't drink Coors Light. Point is, I don't care how tasteless it tastes as long as its got a punch. 5% is minimum, more is better until you get up to the 9s. Then it sort of ruins your evening as after about four or five tall cans of 9+% stuff you don't feel like going out.

I took a friend who was visiting me from the UK on a cask ale tour of Toronto, that was a good route we planned out. One place i visited was called "Ces't what" on Front Street, they brew their own cask ales and had 4 different ones in when I was there. Very enjoyable, wish i had chance to visit more often. https://twitter.com/cheshirecatpub if you can figure out that twitter/bitter thing or if you read like a human Menu Cheshire Cat pub in Carp to reopen within days, after devastating fire | Ottawa Citizen It is on the west outskirts of Ottawa..great pub in a former one room school house which had a large fire which demolished the roof and a lot of the interior in Feb 2013 but reopened 10 months later. They change their cask offerings seemingly weekly |

Mad Tom on cask....that would be right up my street! But any other Canadian cask offerings would be great too. I think cask ale popularity is definitely on the up in Canada!! :thumbsup: |

You do know that carling is a originaly a Canadian beer...
Have you noticed that the Candian cans now have the 'lions' on them, and on close inspection you may find they look similar to the old wembley lions... amazing how a brand gets all messed up and lost... :) |
