I just saw this on the Pilsner Urquell site :
To enter our site you must be over the legal drinking age in your country of residence. US residents under the age of 21 and Canadian residents under the age of 19 are not permitted to enter the Pilsner Urquell website. No persons under the age of 18 are permitted to enter this website.
OK bozos, since when was 19 the drinking age in Alberta? I’m not sure if there are any other provinces at 18, but for sure we are. I think, unless Uncle “prohibition” Stelmach pulled a fast one on us . . .
I never understood why brewery websites need this restriction anyway–it’s not like you can obtain beer directly through the Series-O-Tubes(tm), anyway.
Or if you can, I gotta talk to Telus and upgrade my connection. No more walking to the fridge for me–it’s time to beam my beverage of choice over WiFi!

19 in all provinces except Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec.
No idea what the minimum age for cognitive thought is, though.

Cognitive thought is age independent. Just look at your average silly-servant or politician.
