labrys 0 #229 April 3, 2006 Does anyone know how much beer can be taken over the border from the US to Canada (how much can be transported, not how much duty free can be purchased)?

I'm thinking about cooking up a batch of Rainbow Boobie Homebrew to bring along. Legally, not much. As a practical matter, whatever you can fit in your trunk if you're willing to answer "No" if asked if you're transporting alcohol and risk fines/duty if they do decide to seach your car.

I'm thinking about cooking up a batch of Rainbow Boobie Homebrew to bring along. The US has the same limits for importing. You might check if they have different regs for homebrew. I realize I was going the other direction, but I brought back two cases (24 litres) of my brother's homebrew cider and US customs didn't even care.50 donations so far. Give it a try.

mdrejhon 8 #235 April 5, 2006 Quotewhat are we looking at weather vise in July and August, is it known to be raining a lot or is it known to be a sunny place and hot??It generally gets very warm during this time of the year -- It's southern Canada so temperatures in the 80's are common at this time. It's not like your 100's in Arizonia though. If it's cool, it's the high 70's, and if it's a heat spell, it's the low 90's. Lately, we've been getting annual heat waves, thanks to the greenhouse effect, so mid-90's are getting somewhat more common. (Conveniently converted to Fahrenheit for you all Americans.) Hopefully we don't get rain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites mdrejhon 8 #236 April 5, 2006 QuoteThanks very much for the answer.

Wow I can still fly the inside slot and the rear floater. Also I'm really enjoying my 120 Katana after flying Stiletto's for so long. The parachute is an excellent flying machinje and flies faster and cleaner than my comparable Stiletto and has oodles of bottom end lift. I put myself three feet back up in the air on the flare. It is ground hungry but it is very manageable. I should have enough jumps on it by July to feel better with it at a Boogie. Packing new ZP though, It's slipperier the Astroglide. HA! HA!
