Canadian Beer
Bede:
being used to European beers I found Molson not too bad, St Ambrose ok and Boréale pretty good.
I just made sure I stayed the hell away from Bud and simulair beverages.

Their Blueberry beer is just amazing! And I like their specials at St. Patty's day.
Favorite Canadian beer? That'd have to be good ol' Alpine. Can't believe no one mentioned that one before! The red Keith's good, but the green one is too bitter and leaves a bad after-taste.
I live next to Quebec's borders, and I often see La Maudite, but I kinda too chicken to pay a whole case just to taste, and they don't sell them individually. Same thing for Cochonne.
Border Reiver:
In Ontario we can by them individually in the LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario), so trying out of province beers is easy.
I just finished a couple of beers from the Trafalgar Ales and Meads of Oakville ON called Abbey Belgian spiced ale. It's not bad, but if going for a trappist style ale I prefer to spring for Chimay.

Oooh ooh. Albertan beerhead here. Unibroue is some QUALITY stuff, and not too pricey here. Between $5.75-$7.50 a bottle here depending on what kind you're buying. I'd have to say I prefer Maudite over the other common ones, and their obscure stuff, Le Terrible HAS to take it. Great stuff, that.
I'm a biiiiig fan of my local pride, Big Rock brewery! XO Lager is excellent, and Mcnally's Reserve, though I can only find it at ONE place in the city(Hop in Brew for any locs interested in trying it), MIGHT be my favourite beer. Trad of course is great, as is Warthog, Grasshopper, the seasonal Espresso Stout is GREAT, and all the rest. Ooh, their cider is exceptional too. Matter of fact there's only one of their brews I don't greatly enjoy, and that's their Honey Brown. Just not into it.
Can't stand Kieth's. I don't get the appeal at all.
Border Reiver:
The problem with Canadian beers from anyplace other than the major breweries is that it's rather hit and miss getting them out of province (damned archaic liquor and beer laws). One of these days my dream will be to start at either Victoria or St. Johns and head for the other coast drinking different beers each meal (less breakfast) and enjoying the country.
Damn, that's a pathetic dream.
