    Great list, however, how could you forget the place to drink arguably the greatest beer in the world.

    Let me help you:

    1a: Cafe In De Vrede: Only place you can drink Westvleteren 12, 8, and blonde (according to the monastic brewers wishes, anyway). 12 and 8 are consistently rated in the top 10 beers in the world. This is also called the beer mecca. So, I’m not sure how you missed this one. Place make a HASTY change!

    Thanks for the great least though!

    Just a quick note. The Great Canadian Beer Fest is in Victoria BC, not Vancouver.
