Anyone remember the good old days of HNIC when only Canadian beers were promoted?
Of course, we have a great craft beer industry. It is just sad to see our formerly popular Canadian mainstay brands fall to the sidelines.

What are you nostalgic for?
Local craft breweries do a better job on this, and pretty much everything else that a beer drinker would want, than macrobrews.
