Seeking Weihenstephaner & Schofferhofer Hefeweizen in Manitoba
As a beer enthusiast residing in Manitoba, I’ve encountered a frustrating challenge. While our local Liquor Mart showcases a commendable selection of imported beers, including familiar names like Paulaner from Germany, there are two standout favorites that are noticeably absent: Weihenstephaner and Schofferhofer Hefeweizen.
The predicament deepens due to the restrictive online alcohol purchasing regulations in Canada. Despite the fact that both of these delightful brews are readily available in neighboring provinces like Ontario and Alberta, the cumbersome laws prevent me from placing an order from outside Manitoba.
This leaves me searching for alternatives. Are there any fellow Manitobans who have faced a similar dilemma? Has anyone had luck collaborating with Liquor Mart to expand their offerings? All suggestions and insights would be greatly appreciated as I strive to enjoy these iconic German wheat beers. Cheers!
