Ah, Canada and the U.S.A.

They gained their independence the same week in July (almost 100 years apart) and they’ve been friends since the very beginning right? WRONG!

*thunder crashes*

The year is 1812 and Congress declares war on Canada! Not really, they declared war on Great Britain who had control of Canada. Forts were built, destroyed, and rebuilt. The same went for entire cities! And it’s been so damn hot here that we thought, “Hey, let’s talk about the burning of Buffalo.”

Beer wise, we chat a bit about the oldest breweries of both the U.S. and Canada and we drink beers from four different breweries that we’re PRETTY SURE we haven’t mentioned on the show before! (Two American, two Canadian.)

So grab a beer, sit down, and have a listen eh! 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇬🇧
