Pick up some Sleeman, maybe the honey brown. You'll certainly find better micro brews out there, but Sleeman's isn't bad for larger beer brand.

Yep, most of the industry is owned by 3 or 4 mega-companies.
Sleeman
Brick
Wellington
Steam Whistle
Creemore (although owned by Molson)
Mill Street
all have decent products that are readily available, unlike some of the smaller (but good) breweries.

I seem to recall a brewpub in Tdot called "Cest What", but i do not recall if they brewed their own beer there.

For a while they had a beer called Le Terrible that was 11%. That stuff had some kick.
My other favourite brewery is Phillips. Their names and labels are hilarious (Surly Blonde, Amnesiac, Dirty Squirrel).

This one is delicious as well

i see you are a beer afficiando!
Hafilax, i've had that apricot beer, it's fantastic.
The brew pub in Squamish makes absolutely brilliant beers, oh how i miss the Rail Ale, and the Oatmeal Stout...
