Of course the glue comes from China. I thought horses went to Canada to be slaughtered. Are Canadians hoarding glue? Is the border still closed to horses? Can’t they close the boxes with duct tape? Next they will tell us there is a duct tape shortage. Is it 5:00 o’clock? Pssst. Yup.
Us Canadians have been building our reputation for niceness for decades becasue we knew one day something like covid would come along and we would exploit it for all the tea in China.
No shortage of any alcohol here besides maybe scotch and sake. Saw beer available, but I prefer rum/whiskey esters over the pisswater and it gets you drunk for 1/3 the price.
anyone tried kasteel rouge? that one i can only find in few bars, it tastes like sweet cherry soda, no taste of bitterness or alcohol whatsoever, something you’d never suspect is a beer, yet it is 8% by volume in bottles, can’t find it anywhere in stores, that is the only beer that is in short supply here,
No shortage in the Pacific NW so far, but prices are up.
If the shortage does reach us, I have a fallback plan. A micro-distillery opened a block away from my house this year. They’re young and for the moment just using wood chips to age their whiskey, so I don’t even need to worry about about a barrel shortage.
On a positive note, all the restaurants and bars being closed down last year led to a lot of good craft breweries that previously used to only distribute in kegs starting to can their beer.
Running out of CO2? Now there’s an unexpected twist to the global warming debate!
It sounds interesting and i would like to try it…i ran the search and turns out there are 9 located near me, the closest is 334 miles out to 499 miles away.
I work at a top 10 craft brewery in production. We have been ramping up production the last 2 months. Plenty of packaging/ glue/ cans/CO2. If any of those shortages are going to affect us it hasn’t happened yet.
