In all fairness it's no worse than the watered down tasteless swill that Budweiser passes off as beer. Luckily Canada is but a two hour drive so I can periodically refill the larder with good beer without difficulty.Grant Bunter wrote: More fool you if you've ever let the stuff pass your lips...

At least I can drive to one. Not that there isn't good beer from the USA, today that is. 20 years ago before the rise of microbreweries good brews were rare.Grant Bunter wrote: How sad, you have to go to another country to get good beer...

Pure coincidence that I saw some for sale before your visit. I had no idea if it would be good or not.Harley wrote: So that's why you offered me Steinlager when I visited you

If not for beer the world would be a different place. In 1620 the Pilgrims landed in Massachusetts, a few hundred miles north of their original destination, because they'd run out of beer. If not for that perhaps the French might have expanded Canada further south and I wouldn't have to drive 2 hours to go to Canada, I'd be there already, eh hoser?wallywally wrote: Perhaps we'll have to expand this DIY forum into something more tasty.

Re: How the He11 do U deal with sound "experts" in the booth
When I was in Washington DC in 2006 the hotel was serving Molsons beer in the banquet room; I was somewhat surprised to see Canadian beer this far from home, so I inquired with the staff how difficult it was to get in DC. "No problem at all." they said. Apparently Molsons was purchased by an American company and was readily available there. Perhaps even brewed in the U.S.
However, I guess it can't be labeled as "Molsons Canadian" any longer.

From complaints about a church sound system by it's grumpy parishioners to good beer.
Ya can't get better conclusions to a thread than that I say.

Molson merged with Coors a few years back and is now a multi-national company, which has over 30 brands brewed around the world. Molson has always been readily available in the States; time was it was easier to find than Coors, which used to be available only west of the Mississippi.byacey wrote: However, I guess it can't be labeled as "Molsons Canadian" any longer.

It wasn't available in Texas until the 80s. I remember people coming back from ski trips with their trunk full. Once I tasted it, I didn't really understand the allure. Other than it was hard to get.
