Canadian Beer: 
Bringing Canadians Together

Canadian Beer Day is an annual celebration held on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving to honour Canada’s favourite beverage and the people who make it possible. More than just a toast to great beer, the day highlights beer’s positive economic, cultural, and social impact in communities large and small, from coast to coast. It’s a moment to come together, raise a glass, and celebrate a beverage like no other while encouraging moderation and responsible enjoyment.
