Yup, Canada is cool, its the home of Moosehead Beer and Anne Murray (I can play Snowbird all day long) :) used to drink Moosehead all day long....the moose was always loose :D ;D
and lets don't forget that under appreciated Rock Band from the '70s: April Wine!!

Heading up to Saskatoon this fall. Labatts!!!!

Good juju for my Maple Leafs... Sparky wearing the captains jersey!! First time in 8 years they will make the playoffs (fingers crossed ) glad you like the stuff my friend! Lets see some revamped maple ribs for Jack now...that maple syrup is the real deal... Not watered down like you poor Americans have to endure :P I have a few more people to send some to.. Those that were in contact with me I have your info and will get some to you soon. Im out of Leafs jerseys though.. 8)

And another thing... Never ever ever drink Guiness out of a bottle Sparky.. Only get the cans... Bottles are yucky

Jets and Canuks fans!? And here I thought you were ok... Just kidding man. We will be good when we scoop Luongo as a goalie. You Jets need some work..glad to see them back in the peg though!
-
Nice score Sparky!
That Maple Syrup is real! Even the stuff we get here that says "100% Maple Syrup" is nothing like what you got there. Wait until you taste it ;)

And another thing... Never ever ever drink Guiness out of a bottle Sparky.. Only get the cans... Bottles are yucky
how come? I see it in both ways. been using the bottles. they stay very cold. 8)

The cans have a plastic CO2 widget inside that gives the beer a taste like it was tap poured... way better inmo..

When making your own Black and Tan only two ways work. Either from a keg tap or from the can. I have tried many times and never had success from the bottle. The extra CO2 in the can allows the Guniess to float on the Bass like with the keg version. No matter what size spoon I poured the bottle version over it just would mix.
I tried and tried and tried... And enjoyed every minute ;)

The BEST way to get it is on draft. In Ireland. ;D

Amen to that. It is different there then what we get on tap here. And don't rush the pour......it is supposed to take time ;)

did not know all of that about GD. I had a bottle last night and there was a little thing in the bottle. cans have the same thing? its very smooth. I haven't had a FT since I found this stuff. :'(

Sparky is living it up - nice box of goodies.

I hope you guys get Lou he needs a new team and needs to get away from Van. As for the Jets be some more time in rebuilding but the fans won't wait for ever
Our Niece's husband is a writer for the Canuks, when they made the finals we were able to make some games.
