when you actually hit the border crossing, you're technically already in Canada so being 19 and having booze is legal. however, you're only allowed to have a certain amount of alcohol. you can look it up somewhere, something like 12-17 beers or something (don't remember the number, but it's around there). a person. alcohol % is similar where ever you go, except you chumps in Utah, that shit is lowered. regular light beer in CT is 4.1%, regular is around 4.9%. any specialty or anything decent is around 6.5% and up. ice is 8.9% when you're gettin nuts with it
