Exporting from Ontario?

Post by tyler90 »

I always hear about how awful the LCBO is when it comes to importing a beer into Ontario.
I'm curious, how difficult is it to export from Ontario? Is it solely dependent on the importing area's control?

I've never heard of an Ontario beer being exported, hence the curiosity.

Sleeman's is available in the US. The labelling and shipping requirements likely make it cost prohibitive to export. I suspect part of the reason none of the micros export to the US is the large untapped market within Ontario.

Mill Street, Steam Whistle and Hockley Valley all have their beer available outside of Ontario as well.

I export the hooch that I make in my appartment, and at a very reasonable price. Interested?
