The beer's actually brewed in Toronto, but it's the best I could do.
Solid plan, but I feel obliged to recommend Black Faxe to you, the 1L cans more specifically.

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

They dont have the 1l cans where I live, but it is an excellent beer.
Did the Danes ever intend their beer to become part of the language of love?
The only way to buy Faxe in Denmark is as imports. They are not sold in regular stores here anymore.
I'll be damned, that's too bad.
Really?

Show me you're an alcoholic without showing me you're an alcoholic 🤣🤣🤣
Alcoholism is the inability to self-regulate intake, is that a problem that you have when you drink strong beers, wines and liquor, or do you not enjoy getting a little drunk now and then?
I'm not saying you're and alcoholic if you're drinking a 10% beer. Find me someone drinking a 10% beer and I bet it's likely they're an alcoholic.
Objectively speaking strong beers like this taste like absolute ass. The only purpose they serve is to get drunk. With hard spirits the cheaper they are the more likely they're drunk by alcoholics.
I'm not saying you individually are an alcoholic I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised. Also, your defensiveness is kind of telling in itself.
Source - alcoholism runs in the family. I grew up around it.
Eeeeeeeeeeh, OK fair point, there's a reason that alcoholics favour wines and liquor after all.
This is the way
As an American I envy Canadian's choice of beers with higher alcohol content. Most breweries around here only offer IPAs if you want anything above 6%.
I've run into a similar problem here as well, in that if it's not on the shelf it's a little more difficult to get. I've had to order some beers/liqueurs from vendors, the only catch is that it's not available on the spot.
In high school we used to have a game called "Faxe hands". You tape a large can of faxe to each hand and try to finish them both before you pee your pants, always a great time!
Huh. For us it is 40s.
Edward 40 hands
Hello, fellow USA dude?
Nope Canadian through and through.
One more thing we have in common with our northerly neighbors!
Measurements in Canada are weird. We have a blend of the imperial and metric system. I only know my weight in pounds and my height in feet. When cooking we use fahrenheit but my thermostat is set in Celsius
That is strange.
In college we had "Edward 40-hands". Where you taped 2 40oz (1180mL) malt liquor bottles to your hands and couldn't remove them before finishing. I pissed my coworker's bed playing that.
As god intended
As a german, what is german pizza?
Schau bitte dieses schöne Exemplar an
Warum musstest du mich daran erinnern
In this case, it's just a regular, mass-produced frozen pizza from a German factory. There's nothing really culturally significant about it.
Sauerkraut pizza is a thing.
By German pizza you mean a Döner?
Btw over here Faxe sells 1l cans
Idk, flatbread pizza. Says "product of Germany", which, by Canadian law, means it has to have at least 80% of it's production done in that country. So, it's made there. As for culinary style, I couldn't say for sure.
I was joking, Döner Kebab in a pita sandwich is just like the most common fast food here

My father and I used to get the 1 Litre black cans, the strong version.
1 litre of 10% beer was quite a kick.
Flammkuchen
This was my former alcoholic roommates go to beer! I would hear him crack one open before going to work!
Skål!
#straight #faxe
I'm American and Faxe was my favorite beer when I lived in Denmark. Do they even sell this here? (you know, before the tariffs xD)
Faxe beer is awesome. From the 5% to the 10% versions.
You must have not had a propper beer then :D
But you do you
Calm down pal, just because it's not some 8.3% 25 dollar per 1/3rd pint honeycomb mallow root raspberry stout with hints of black tar heroin brewed exclusively by monks in the alps doesn't make it any less a good beer.
Calm down pal
I am thinking of a good classic german Helles
It's all good sorry for going off, I'm not good at doing the tone indicators for "I'm taking the piss and making it as obtuse as possible"
Hey there buddy, I'm gonna need to request a source for this 8.3% 25 dollar per 1/3 pint honeycomb mallow root raspberry stout with hints of black tar heroine brewed exclusively by alpine monks... for a friend.
