I'm looking for a new drink

[CGM]

Move to Canada amat. We'll let ya get shit-faced legal like, before we ship you off to war.

I'd say we could teach those Yanks a thing or two about drinking. Three or four Canadian strength beers and they'd be on their butt.

I've seen some on the shelves over here, XXX Molsens. You sure you guy's aren't just spiking the beer?

Yeah we're making some wickedly strong Beer these days. Eight percent alcohol, maybe even stronger. Our standard is 5%. I don't like the taste of the strong stuff myself.

Back in my hard partying days we used to have lots of beer strikes. Then the liquor stores would have only American beer, which was only 3% and watery as piss. Canadian standard was and still is 5%. What to buy? Nothing like being stuck at the drinking place at the side of the river with some buds and a 24 of Pabst Blue Ribbon.

My understanding is that American Beer has improved somewhat since the old days though.

I always used to chuckle at the differences between some Canadian and American products. Beer and cigarettes in particular were totally different.
