North America as well as being famous for the invention of Taste Free beer, also manage to produce bacon without any pig meat in it. Just saying like :-)

Got to say that around where you are makes some of THE best beer. Tremendous stuff, but we pay a premium over here for good ales.

Re: What Can you not find in Certain Countries While Cruising?

OK so I may be a day late and a dollar short.... however.... I have heard it said that Canadian beer is like making love in a canoe.

Root beer on the other hand ... isn't that also known as Boags...the well known Tasmanian aphrodisiac?

Aussie beer ain't bad either. Easy to differentiate twixt good and bad beer. Good beer doesn't need to be chilled right down to freezing (as most american beer - Sammy Adams and Anchor Steam are the exceptions that prove this rule) to be drinkable.
