I live in the province of British Columbia and I payed $190 plus a $30 dep. for a 1/2 barrel of Richard's Honey. These prices are pretty close to what you will expect to pay for most domestics. Some micros can be even more than that!


Bottom line: it's still half the cost of bottles and the alcohol content of most Canadian beers is 5% and up.
