Yessir, we can buy it here in Ontario. It comes in a nice big bottle of
about 600 ml I think (a real pint I guess).
They had it on draught at our local pub for a while. Somehow it always
seems better when someone pulls it from a keg.
Now I think we need one named after a Triumph - hmm... Old Rusty Bucket?
