How much beer can I take across the border from the U.S. to Canada in a half-day trip?

Question

Also, can I take hot-dogs (wieners) from the U.S. to Canada?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Why would you want US beer when coming into Canada? You should just drink water if you want something close to american beer...........cheaper.

Answer 2

That's so wrong.

Anyway, apparently each Canadian resident 19 or over (18 in QC, MB or AB) can bring a two-four of beer (8.5 litres) and up to 20kg of meat.

Answer 3

a six pack of beer...... why would you want to cross with weiners?? yes you can do so if they are in their original package.

i have looked up a flyer for you;

after 48 hours less for half a day;

1.14 litres of alcohol

or

24/355 beer

or 1.5 litres of wine

you can check for yourself @

as i live at the porthill / rykerts crossing we cross  for gas and beer taking about 15 mins to do so

we are allowed a 6 pack of beer and no wine.

some people travel  to bonners ferry , which is about 1 hr away, to buy groceries weekly and have no problem crossing with store bought products in the original packaging.
