    With the Covid situation, I'm pretty sure small breweries are having some difficulties. We helped two breweries in Nova Scotia by buying a lof of beers shipped to Quebec. We would like to do it again with other provinces.

    If you know someone / brewery who is willing to ship and have a good selection of beer... send me a PM and we will go throught.

    Thank you

    I’ve looked into this a bit myself and can’t seem to find any breweries shipping out of Province other than those from Nova Scotia.

    Maybe try a proxy trade with someone from another province?

    Yeah I don't know about other provinces but in Quebec it's not legal AFAIK. Not sure if you mean just finding beers in a store to buy or what, @remsad . Either way, as much as I like your idea and wish you luck finding places to support, there are plenty of local places that could use locals' business right now both in Quebec and in the other provinces. The AMBQ the other day forecast a loss of 40% of existing breweries in Quebec from an extended lockdown.

    I agree with you and we support them already. I’m just looking for other breweries I don’t have access and making a win win situation. If it’s not possible, I’m fine with that also. I really hope this Covid situation will be less harmful really soon

    It’s a good idea but it’s lot of beer and time for packaging. I will take a look!

    I’ve got a bunch of boxes from recent brewery orders here. If you want stuff from Toronto area breweries, let me know, and I might be able to grab and send along to you. Cheers!
