Has anyone tried blue ribbon beer? Costco sells it for $28 a flat. I was tempted to give it a try last time I was there. I ended up grabbing a 18 pack of twisted tea for $36. Beer is expensive!

I’m a fan of Belgian and German beers. Also the islands west of France. One most people don’t seem to know is Smithwicks. But it has to be on tap.

Speaking of the islands, Scrumpy Jack has to have an honourable mention, even if it isn’t beer.

Pabst blue ribbon! It is a staple for camping in my family, I really don't mind it as a budget beer. But another honourable mention is the open road brown ale by Troubled Monk in red deer. Beautiful full bodied beer that goes great with a nice elk steak and potatoes...

I've really been into Two Sergeants Brewing in Fort Sask. They do a stout that's amazing. The bitter is a close second. Not for the faint of heart though. Lots of flavour.
Russels is good too. Try the Wee Angry Scotch Ale. Or the bitter.

Yeah, I feel like we should do crowd funding, have a relief fund for those who drink the Lucky. Though the 58Cat comment about making 3s look like 9s made me laugh pretty good....

We used to buy Paulaner in High River at the liquor store North of Flys Etc. That was before the flood and I’m not sure if the store is still there. Very good beer.

A local store where we do our whisky tastings must have me on their preferred customer list by now, because i called, they ordered, and a flat should be here next week. It is very good bier!

This company has some good ones. Lots I haven't tried, but would like to.

Unsure about the one named "dirty tackle", however...

How true!
After a 14 day river fishing trip we saved 12 Lucky for a last day celebration, 5 out of 6 guys gagged and poured their beer out the only one that finished his was the guy that brought them.

Default Big Rock

The "River Valley" beer sold at liqueur depot is brewed by Big Rock. It may not be the best... I like the Red, and it is good for the $$

I bought some Big Rock Scottish Ale on recommendation, but have not tried one yet. I was told that people (like me) who like Innis & Gunn might like this Scottish.
