You know you're in Canada when...

[Dreadbelly]

You know you're in Canada when you are 19 and legal to drink.

...and 18 in some provinces...

As for this Old Vienna stuff... the only photos I can find of it are of stubbies. So that might tell you something.

Yep, that's about right. They also made Black Label.

And as Dread pointed out you're legal everywhere in Canada. When I turned 19 and could then get into bars legally, I started going down to the States for the challenge (21years).

I personally don't like 'double-doubles'. Regular, that's what I order.
"Large regular please. Keep the change, eh?"

What? 1 cent?

Legal drinking age in Alberta is 18, thank god.

[Fearnest]

When I was a kid, the drinking age in New Jersey was 18, and the driving age was 17... didn't give you much time to get good at one before you started combining it with the other! (Assuming you didn't start early.)

And the link to the Canada thread? We served as the "Canada" (lower drinking age alternative) for the southern part of New York state. (OK, it's a stretch.)

Old Vienna

For some of us it was "V.O." as well as "OV", as in Seagrams' V.O. Canadian Whisky.

[MacHummel]

Well I was a Molsen Stock ale guy, went to a punk club last year and they served it, still amazing. I will always love the C.C. whisky

[Big Mikey]

In my younger days it was Old Style, Seagrams 86 and the occasional bottle of Lonesome Charlie!?!
