I always wanted to visit Ottawa and Quebec City. Maybe one day I'll trek over and check them out. I agree some of the craft beers served at brewery pubs is abominable. I had 1 the other week and it made me vomit and then I had another with a buffalo burger and it was realllly tangy and citrusy. I like my beer tasting like beer. I reallly like in-line skating so I would be onboard skating the Rideau Canal too.Sold. I'll look for it.
PS: I tasted some abominable garage brewed beers after surviving the winter in Ottawa. Which everybody thought I'd die in, but skating on that channel (by Queen Elizabeth or such) for endless miles was absolutely epic! Still have friends there I adore.
