The beer’s actually brewed in Toronto, but it’s the best I could do.

        Drink some water before bed any night that you drink too much for your tolerance, same as wine and liquor.

        Alcoholism is the inability to self-regulate intake, is that a problem that you have when you drink strong beers, wines and liquor, or do you not enjoy getting a little drunk now and then?

          I’m not saying you’re and alcoholic if you’re drinking a 10% beer. Find me someone drinking a 10% beer and I bet it’s likely they’re an alcoholic.

          Objectively speaking strong beers like this taste like absolute ass. The only purpose they serve is to get drunk. With hard spirits the cheaper they are the more likely they’re drunk by alcoholics.

          I’m not saying you individually are an alcoholic I’m just saying I wouldn’t be surprised. Also, your defensiveness is kind of telling in itself.

          Source - alcoholism runs in the family. I grew up around it.

      As an American I envy Canadian’s choice of beers with higher alcohol content. Most breweries around here only offer IPAs if you want anything above 6%.

        I’ve run into a similar problem here as well, in that if it’s not on the shelf it’s a little more difficult to get. I’ve had to order some beers/liqueurs from vendors, the only catch is that it’s not available on the spot.

    In high school we used to have a game called “Faxe hands”. You tape a large can of faxe to each hand and try to finish them both before you pee your pants, always a great time!

      Idk, flatbread pizza. Says “product of Germany”, which, by Canadian law, means it has to have at least 80% of it’s production done in that country. So, it’s made there. As for culinary style, I couldn’t say for sure.

        When I was a kid, we lived in Germany. The local pizza had canned tuna on it. Super strange. I’m United Statesian. I remember the rest of Germany and the German people very fondly. End of story.

            No tuna on pizza here, nope. Some folks like anchovy, but it’s rare to encounter. In my 40+ years of life, i’ve only heard someone ask for anchovy once. I’m just talking normal takeout pizza, not fancy fine dining michelin star food.

              Tuna pizza is fairly common in Finland. Frutti di mare and opera have tuna usually, opera being pretty popular pizza to buy

    I’m American and Faxe was my favorite beer when I lived in Denmark. Do they even sell this here? (you know, before the tariffs xD)

        Calm down pal, just because it’s not some 8.3% 25 dollar per 1/3rd pint honeycomb mallow root raspberry stout with hints of black tar heroin brewed exclusively by monks in the alps doesn’t make it any less a good beer.

            The raspberry mallow may have been an exaggeration thanks to brewdog being champions, but Vault Brewery genuinely make an 8% honeycomb chocolate stout that’s glorious
