What’s Good Canada
This weekend the K4T Beverage Inspection Van is making a surprise stop in Ontario. If there are any drinks that have yet to make it past the heightened security of our borders, the Gents kindly request the favor of an email. We have never heard of Canadians drinking anything other than beer, but what the hell, never hurts to ask.

A drink that is possibly exclusive to Canada (and definitely not available in most states) is a Bloody Caeser. Similar to a Bloody Mary, but made with Clamato Juice instead of tomato. Clamato juice is tomato juice with a bit of clam juice. That sounds unappealing, but it really does taste very good.
I can’t think of any other drinks that are especially Canada. I do of course recommend beer, there are all sorts of craft beers available. Specifically, I recommend Brick beers (especially Waterloo Dark and JR Brickman’s Amber) but some of that is because I’m local to them. I’d suggest avoiding Labbatt and Molson beers. Despite having some 90% of the national beer market, their brews really aren’t significantly different than Coors Light, Bud and other common North American lagers. There is the extra alcohol content though I suppose.
