Willowpark has it, as well as several other beers from the brewery (Unibroue). Try the Trois Pistoles. I like it even more than the La Fin du Monde.

I think La Fin Du Monde has a bit too strong a taste of coriander, I prefer the Blanche de Chambly.

And I have seen it in many placed around. I believe it is still in my local Co-op liquor store, but not in 6 or 12s, only as single 500ml bottles.

I had a Keith's Red Amber Ale in the Keiths sampler I bought a few weeks ago at costco... I really liked it.

Co-op liquor stores have it, plus I think in some of the huge bottles as well.

I have had it a few times, the flavour seems over-powered by the alcohol though.

I like the Maudite.

That brewery has some good choices. Maudite is a bit darker, Chambly is a bit lighter.

Most of them are 9% and give you a wicked unfiltered hangover.

Readily available at most brand name stores. Coop, Safeway, Sobeys, Willow etc. Sobeys has 6 packs of 3 or 4 of the most popular varieties.

They also have 500 or 750ml singles of varieties and I think they have a taster 12pk as well.

Yeah, you can find Unibroue in a lot of places, I usually hit up Co-op.

I'd have to say that Trois Pistoles is probably better. And for something a little different, the black currant Ephemere is amazing, IMO. I wasn't a big fan of the apple Ephemere, but the black currant one is just awesome.

If a beer has Coriander in it, it's a sure bet that I won't like it. I've come around to a lot of beer tastes ... but I just can't with these types of beers.

If you like the taste of gag reflex, you'll like Fin du Mond.

awesome, the Sobey's liquor store right by my place has a whole shelf of Unibroue brews including La Fin. now the only problem i have is that alcohol content. the beer is so good, yet after only 2 i'm already buzzing pretty good. this stuff will be fantastic for parties where i want to get drunk fast and cheap

Brewed in Kelowna... if you haven't tried Hophead yet and you like IPA's, giver a go.



One of my current favourites.

Paddockwood brewed here in Saskatoon also makes a really good IPA, 606.



Picked some of this stuff up last time I was in Cowtown, big fan.



And then again straight out of Montreal, visited this microbrewpub after it was suggested by a poster on this board, turns out I had drank the majority of the beer before but couldn't put the label to the name..

Really, really good IPA.

I have never found that Guinness makes me feel bloated. It make be thick but it has much less carbonation than your typical lager.

My cousin was in from England this summer and a friend of mine drinks these Crown floats so he ordered him one... he picked it up and imagine a proper English accent said "What the hell is wrong with the Guinness over here?!?"

Then after we explained to him what they had done I swear a tear damn naer dropped out of his eye as he said, "Rubbish, waste of a damn good beer, damn rubbish mate."

I said well you don't have to drink it, he says "Well it might be watered down with pikey juice, but I'm still going to polish the bloody thing."

Frick did I laugh..

Hah not a word of a lie as I read this thread and type this I am drinking a Red Racer.

My beer opener is upstairs and they were the only IPA cans I have in my beer fridge..

[GreenLantern]

This is what is going on in my beer fridge right now... I occupy the bottom two rows, my room mate the top two with his crappy beer.



Some really good ones in there, Howe Sound makes that Total Eclipse of the Hops, 90 IBU's shes a bit strong. The Devil's Elbow IPA by them is fricken awesome. Little shout out to Mickey's and of course the staple for any good beer collection, Guinnie. The Half Pints and Okanagan Springs were an experiment, not a HUGE fan of either but they are good in their own way. In the back you can see the remnants of a Liberty Ale 6 pack poking its neck out.

So happy that's back in Alberta finally. Discovered it passing through Sask on a road trip years ago, gave a college buddy money for a case every time he went home to Saskatoon for the holidays. Hopefully they'll bring it up here to Deadmonton too.

Some local guys in Edgerton, Alberta (My home town) have started up a brewery. They are only selling kegs right now, but will have cans out soon. The beer is being brewed in Edmonton until the brewery is up and running in Edgerton.

One of the best winter ales ive had
