So you have undertaken the ritual holiday pilgrimage to the giver of all earthly delights the “Beer Store”?

The actual purchase was from the Beer Store’s more exalted cousin, the LCBO. That said, the pilgrimage included both of the hoppy places, and took place on foot. The town is small, though it can certainly hold its weight.

In this particular town, it is important to undertake the pilgrimage relatively early on a two-four as between the locals and the cottagers, if one goes in on Tuesday morning one would break under the impression that either locust or the WCTU had been through. (Which recalls a two-four Sunday a couple years back when I pulled into a Timmies in Huntsville to discover that all they had left in baked goods were seven Tim bits and a dozen muffins. I was sorely tempted to buy them out just to say that I have). I have heard that in a survey done some years back, the only place in Canada that outsold us on the liquor front was Whitehorse.
