    I know parts of the US may have this already, and maybe other provinces in Canada. But not Ontario. But yes, they are building a new local beer store....... and its got a friggin drive thru. Thats almost better than yoga pants.

    Actually, Moosehead has had a drive thru in Dartmouth for more than a decade or two.

    I think we used to have one in Manitoba, but I'm not sure if it's still around or not.

    Or in the frozen North an Eskimo chica in a polarbear parka..


    Told this one before...

    Got a buddy who is an airline pilot. Very sharp dude and likes his beer. Washington law allows buying beer in Taverns in bulk. The most oft used are "Cubitainers". My buddy Herb goes in with cubitainers made for the Canadian folks and gets an Imperial Gallon for the Price of a US gallon.

    Back when Carling O'Keefe had their brewery at Redwood and Main, we had an attached retail store tbere which was more or less a drive through. Don't know if Labatts or Molsons had one.

    There was a retail store at the old Molson brewery in Barrie ON that had a drive thru window. Right beside the northbound lanes of Hwy 400.

    I worked there for a few years then moved on to Associated Beer Distributors when they came into being. Old man worked there as a sales rep. He actually started at a brewery called Riedles Brewery at Stadacona and Talbot in 1949. That became Grant's Brewery until O'Keefe's bought them out I think in the mid 50's. Carling's and O'Keefe's amalgamated in 1968 I think at which time all operations and brewing were moved over to Redwood and Main. The storage capacity in that brewery was insane for a Manitoba brewery. Millions of gallons (imperial gallons, not that piddly US gallon) of the amber nectar was on hand ready for bottling by late spring each year.

    So ya see, I come by my beer swilling very honestly.
