"almost everywhere outside of the United States is measured by volume. The U.S. legal standard (many states regulate the strength of beer) is by weight. For instance, a beer that is 3.2% by weight is about 4% by volume."


5% beer in the States (that regulate the strength of their beer) is 4% beer in Canada.

+1 on the Sleemans stuff. Talk about smooth. You could probably drink that stuff at room temperature and it would still taste good.

Yeah thats case i picked up when my pops was in town visiting. His favorite Canadian beer is Molson Export, but he was pretty taken by Rickards White after he drank all of them! damn him! Rickards is owned by Molson so you know it can't be all that bad. I wonder if they just sell the white myself. Sleemans original is awesome as well, great beer.

Hey guys, now tell me. Many Montrealers tell me how expensive beer is in Ontario. They says its well over 35 a case for normal beer thats like 24 bucks here. How much is a case of sleeman or 12pks for that matter and rickards, molson Ex, etc? Just curious.

Are you sure you beat almost getting in a fight with one of your best buddies you haven't seen in a long time? I through him across my kitchen into my stove.......... so I am told and we crashed into my wall knocking down and smashing my ornamental plates, lol. Ohh well we looked at eachother in the morning and started to laugh. Thats what he gets for tormenting me for 1.5hrs trying to get my drunk/passed out *** out of bed. How about 40+ ounces in under 4 hours, thank you very much
