AFAIK it was a misconception that Canadian beer was stronger bc they've always used ABV but it used to be alcohol by weight in America, so a lower percentage. Pretty sure 4-5% is standard for a typical lager anywhere in the world.
@@benf91 Perhaps that may be the case for the labeling, but I bartended through school back in the 80s and 90s and I can tell you that when Yanks came to in they would always note that Canadian beer was stronger.
@@brianrussell9419 I think that depends on when you grew up. You grew up in the 80's you loved SCTV. You grew up in the 90's you loved red green. You grew up in the 2000's you loved Trailer park boys. They all brought different styles to the table & are all funny in their own way.

SouthTexasPepper; H.F.Y. (& a GR8 theme song per4med by none other than Ian Thomas; Dave's brother) Ian's best known 4 his 1973 hit song "Painted Ladies" but he was also instrumental in exposing the PAYOLA SCANDAL that ROYALLY FUCKED OVR LOTS OF CANADIAN MUSICIANS (especially Ian Thomas himself) from enjoying success in the U.S.A.; BTW, he also wrote & per4med "Hold On" (covered by Santana in 1982) & "The Runner" (covered by Manfred Mann's Earth Band in 1984). The originals of both songs came out in 1981 (the latter song's the title cut from Ian Thomas' 1981 album "The Runner". Both of them BLOW AWAY the respective cover versions.
I was in the theater watching Brother Bear when the bear encountered the two moose-Bob and Doug eh. I laughed like a hosehead and people stared at me eh. I guess I was the only one in on the joke eh. Seriously, now that you have seen Bob and Doug, check out Brother Bear. The scene comes in the middle of the movie. It is so funny.
They were basically mocking the American impression of Canadians, and then Americans started basing their Canadian impressions on Bob and Doug McKenzie, which was a satire of how the Americans thought Canadians talked and... I've gone cross-eyed...
Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis told the story behind these characters a lot: they’re not making fun of Americans (well, a bit, probably, but not primarily Americans), they’re making fun of Canadian content regulations. While they were making the show, a law was passed saying that all shows needed a certain percentage of distinctly Canadian content. Their response was to ask what does that even mean? The whole show is entirely Canadian! So to comply with that regulation, the decided to write a sketch where they pile every Canadian stereotype on top of each other.
I used to wait for these guys to come on sctv. It was usually toward the end of the show. Then I'd fall asleep. And true story, we used to have a Moosehead beer 🍻 billboard by my house. When they plastered over it , it really bummed me out.
This segment was to meet "Canadian Content" requirements by the Canadian government of the time. The latest Canadian government is going to impose "Canadian Content" on streaming services and social media so perhaps we'll get some more Bob and Doug McKenzie-esque stuff.
Yeah, somewhat. The only real funny scene is where Doug hits the brakes in the van and Bob lands in the windshield. Surprised that Max Von Sydow would do a movie like this. But money is money...
How stupid could it be? It was HAMLET, for cryin' out loud! More from the POV of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, and with some modern tech, but still Hamlet. (seriously, the Elsinore Brewery?)
I made my dad sit through the movie twice while we were waiting for a train in Pittsburgh. He wasn’t impressed but I was quoting it all summer from dawn til dusk.
+mcaddicts Problem was the mice were getting into stubbies cause the neck wasn't long, eh? And the companies were losing money on them, cause guys were bringing back empty stubbies with mice in them, eh?
I love the scene where the Mac bros are talking to a hockey player, asking him if he worries about his plane crashing. "It's going to happen sometime."
I remember when you'd get a free church key at your liquor store whenever you bought a 6-pack or case of beer B4 pull-tabs and twist-off caps made church-keys obsolete BUT you'll still have those attachments on a good Swiss Army Knife. ☺
Back in the 80s when these bits were new, they had a small debate about the robotic arm on the space shuttle, which was made in Canada. Doug figured if it was Canadian, it had to be capable of opening a beer. Bob thought opening a beer in outer space would be a bad idea because all the beer would float upward.
So grab some drinking buddies and a few dozen 12 packs of your favorite Beer and while watching this Movie take a drink every time you hear them say "eh" and "Hozer" Good luck. May the Beer Gods watch over you!!
My buddies and I from high school were into these guys back in the 80’s eh,”ya know,my brother used to say drowning in beer would be like Heaven,well he’s not here and I’ve got two soakers,this ain’t heaven,this sucks!!!”
At Christmas time, don't forget to put your beer in a tree, eh. Don't be the one hoser with your turtleneck on, reaching into a cooler for your beer, eh?

Mike Myers had to get the idea for Wayne's world from this sketch. I remember seeing the movie Strange Brew for the first time on beta around 84 or 85 and it was hilarious brilliant sketch it's better than Wayne's world.
Actually, government has enforced 'no twist off caps' now only pop caps everywhere! Can't find a twist off anywhere in BC, because someone sued somebody over tiny broken shards from the twist offs!
Dave Thomas made these characters up on the spot,were told they needed some content that was more "canadian" on the show,so they went with these exaggerated stereotype hoseheads.
If I didn't know about the launch today I would be so confused about why this is showing up in my suggestions. People must be searching for Bob and Doug a lot

Of course we do..
I must thank Doug McKenzie for his inspiration to America's current craft brewers. Beauty, eh?
Enterprising brewers down south saw this and were like "More alcohol? Good idea!" Thus was born the American Craft Brew industry.
I remember those "brown grenade" beer bottles. God only knows how many of those filled with Molson I poured down my throat. Good times.
7,452

They had green ones as well, filled with Mickey's malt liquor.

No I tried that once eh, they wouldn't fall for it. Took my bottle back to the beer store and the guy told me to take off and go talk to the brewery.
Yeah and then you got a job and wound up in the looney bin, eh?
THEY JUST DID!!!! Look up coors banquet!! there stubby's!!!! Its back eh

This is why I homebrew and use pry off beer bottles and caps. And I always add lots of alcohol to it.
Canada, home to strong beer and a weak dollar. Take off 'eh
@Larry Schroeder we need strong beer so it wouldnt freeze in our skidoo before we got to camp
Canada had a higher dollar for a bit this new millennium. Not bad for having less population than California.

Two things you need to survive in Canada - A Bic Lighter and a Church Key.

When was this made? Notice that Rick Moranis' face looks a little puffy?

Counter tops work pretty good to open beers if you don't have an opener, eh?

is Moosehead a genuine Canadian beer or it considered swill by real Canucks?
I used the bumper on my truck to get beer caps off.
Cheers from your twist off neighbor from the south. I wish tv was still funny. Canada was hilarious damnit..We have nothing funny down here.

Nah, most commercial Canadian beer are twist offs now. The odd micro brew still uses the pop-top caps that you need the opener for.
Actually, government has enforced 'no twist off caps' now only pop caps everywhere! Can't find a twist off anywhere in BC, because someone sued somebody over tiny broken shards from the twist offs!
Did everyone here know that their other brother Mike McKenzie played for the Green Bay Packers?
Doug's a spittin image for supreme court nominee Kavanaugh.

SCTV was much funnier than Saturday Night Live. John Candy, Joe Flaherty, these two, Catherine O'Hara, et al were just hilarious.
