Samuel Adams is available in Ontario Brewers Retail outlets, though I have
yet to gird up my loins and find the courage to try it. It's not the
thought of the beer that requires the courage it's perfoming CPR on the
guy behind the counter if I ordered an American beer.

Agreed. Just buy horse urine, er Molson, and keep everyone healthy.

If that's meant to be an insult you're barking up the wrong tree, I generally agree with you,
non of the big brand beers in either the US or Canada is good for much besides putting out
fires.

Thats because most Americans (and I presume Canadians) do not like beer -
they just want to get drunk. You have to hunt down a local mini-brewery run
by folks who like beer.

Why would that be an insult? My country produces copious quantities of the
blandest liquid this side of dishwater and calls it beer. While Molson is
no better, it doesn't excuse the crap we "brew" here.

My comment was just a way of saying "don't rock the boat," if that's what
you are disinclined to do. The majority of people on our dock won't drink
my beer. Comments such as "too hoppy" or "not refreshing" are heard in the
excuses. Fine. It simply means I'm not underwriting the beer consumption
requirements for others, allowing more for my wife and me, and saving me
money.

Certainly there are some good Cannuck microbrews that you could buy without
inducing a vaso-vagal response in your local liquor store employees.

Max is only partly correct...the people on his dock will say those thing up
to about 7 pm and then they will drink almost anything put before them with
no complaints whatsoever...
