By Nicholas Pashley. We like beer in Canada. We really, really like it. And it's not just a fly-by-night, sordid little affair. The rest of us just do what we can to help. In the long-awaited follow up to Notes on a Beermat, Pashley explores beer in Canada, covering many salient points, including chapters on - Frère Ambroise, Who Started It All (Unless He Didn't)- Us Against Them: Canadians and Our Neighbours to the South- When Canadians Knew Squat: The Stubby in Our Lives- Beer: Isn't It Bad for You and Bad for the Planet?.
