Bryan, in the world before Heineken, there were many wonderful beers in the
Niagara Region, on both sides of the border.  I myself learned to puke while
drinking Red Cap and I remember Black Label, Formosa and Old Vienna with
fondness.

The Brick Brewing Company in Waterloo, Ontario has bought the rights and the
recipes to those old Carling products and are making excellent
reproductions, some of which are available from time to time in BC, where I
put them in my Vanagon and transport them home to drink safely.    :)
