Canada may be known for the Mackenzies and their beer drinking prowess but we didn’t fare so well up north in that department. Six packs of Molsen and Labatt were running about $12, yikes! After a week in Canada without a proper pint I had a bit of the ol’ thirst. Enter the little town of Bonner’s Ferry, Idaho. Just after crossing the border we pulled into town and parked alongside the Kootenai River to make some lunch. Afterwards, we hopped out of the Minnie to take a stroll around town. Low and behold the first site we saw was a sign reading BEER in big bold letters.
