As it's Canada Day, our favourite thing to do is host a Canadian Craft beer BBQ. In the prairies you can get a sampling of beer from each province! A dream we had years ago when we did our first cross country beer run. We've done regional tastings each year afterward but the availability of Canadian craft in the prairies is very impressive
We realize that Alberta rules this more than the others, but Saskatchewan is close - you just have to dig a bit. Manitoba, though, you're less likely to find all provinces but it doesn't mean you shouldn't try Quebec and BC beers.
We've been, and will continue, tweeting this week on the various beers available in the prairies to try. Follow and go out and try something new from Canada. Your province or from another
