 Not to change the subject but...at least you folks (america) can purchase your alcohol practically anywhere.  In Canada we have to go to designated 'Beer Stores' or 'Liquor Stores' with the latter being run by the government!!   :-[

Depends on the province good sir, I live in Ottawa and if I drive to Gatineau (Province of Quebec), I can get wine and beer from any corner store.

Franco B:
Why is alcohol so restricted in the US/Canada?

Can you not even get it at the supermarket etc?

It seems so strange to me that some of you have trouble even buying a beer. Building stuff isn't half as much fun without a nicely stocked fridge :)

Bender:
Don't even get me started on this
It is so stupid the way alcohol is regulated
and here in Maine you can buy beer and wine at the grocery store, but have to go to a state approved liquor store and the nearest one is 20 miles away, so we have to go to new Hampshire to get liquor, what a pain in the ass.
Good thing I like beer!

good news though, my friend in NH order up some Boss Monster for me, Woo hoo!

You got that right!

I am going to try to brew my own beer over the winter. Should be interesting... and tasty!
