      Molson Coors is a Canadian-American company with headquarters in Chicago and Montreal.

      For me, that’s enough to stay away from it, but it’s not a fully American company, so I allow some leeway there.

        Can confirm the New-West brewery has shut down. They paved that entire district, put up a parking lot (under these great-looking buildings).

          “The Distilled Spirits Council, an industry group, estimated exports of U.S. distilled spirits to Canada at $43.4 million over the first six months of 2025, down about 62% from the same period in 2024. Exports of American wine were about 67% lower, the group said, citing U.S. trade data.”

                    Funny… another headline today was about 53% of adults no longer drinking and thinking alcohol is bad for you.

                    I guess the two go hand in hand….

                        Canada’s got great local craft brewries and distilleries all over the place. We do not need American stuff, and at least on the beer front the Canadian-brewed stuff’s just plain better tasting.

                          and thinking alcohol is bad for you.

                          I mean there is a strong scientific consensus on that.

                          I can also recommend everyone to say goodbye to alcohol. Alcohol free beers can be quite good nowadays. The only taste i miss sometimes is a Whiskey where you can taste the smokiness but it isn’t too strong yet. Still not worth the negative health effects.

                                  Of course. A diminishing domestic market combined with a completely obliterated export market. What a combo.

                                      Moosehead is the only fully Canadian major brewery left, to my knowledge.

                                      Everything else is owned by either Molson-Coors, Sapporo or InBev.

                                        We need a good replacement for bourbon though. No canadian whisky is a drop-in replacement

                                        Edit: i know other styles of whisky exist. I’ve tried a lot of them. Nothing out there currently is close to bourbon. Not even the right type of grain to start with.

                                        It’s like asking for a champagne replacement and people suggesting red wines instead of other types of sparkling white wine (of which many exist)

                                          Verily it is not Canadian any longer. The jobs are all in Murca. It’s brewed in Murca.
