Drinking Guide to Toronto
Friday, February 13, 2015
Almost everyone that likes
to go out and party appreciates a good, quality drink. For a long while, USA
and Canada have been infamous for their poor beer and wine offer. For example,
if you go to South Europe, it is almost impossible for you to drink a bad wine.
It’s the same story with the beer in Central Europe. No wonder that Europeans
frowned, for such a long time, at the offer that North America has. In a
situation where an individual likes to go to the bar or to the club primarily
to drink, and when that same bar has bad choice of alcohol, it is obvious that
he will find some other place to visit. Luckily for Toronto, it changed its
ways in the recent decades. Like many other cities in Canada and America
nowadays, it is much easier to get any type of high quality beverage in this
beautiful city.
Toronto is known for its industry and commerce. It was
like this since the first settlements were created on this territory. Same with
the industry, a large number of local bars started appearing. They were mostly
situated around the industrial complexes and warehouses, in order for the workers
to have an easy access to them.
One thing that Toronto is good at is its cocktail offer.
It has been like this for quite a long time. Again, similarly to their southern
neighbors, this is an aspect of the night life in which they excel. Even if we
exclude all your standard cocktails, which you can find in every bigger city in
the world, there are numerous local types and mixtures that are characteristic
only in this city. The place which will sweep you off your feet is one of the best lounges in Toronto named D.W.
Alexander. Some of the best cocktails that you can try in Toronto are made in
this lounge. The interior and the atmosphere can only improve the overall
drinking experience and make you an instant fan of this establishment. This is
a great example of a bar that gives you an authentic taste of good, local
drinks.
Big impact of the globalization on Canada can be viewed
through their alcohol offer. As previously mentioned, until recently, North
America didn't have good exposure to foreign brands. Lately, there are more and
more foreign beers (by that I mean quality beers) as well as wine. This small
revolution led to a big number of local bars that serve only one of these
alcohols, in some cases together with a good menu. It is a commonplace to see
mini breweries all over the city. We can recommend Toronto to all the people
who like to have a cold one during a warm summer day.
Currently, one of the best places to visit in Canada is
definitely Toronto. Great night life, lots of different social and cultural
events, as well as good alcohol offer, makes it a great destination for all of
you that like to have a good weekend.

I've been to DW Alexander many times and their Saturday nights are awesome! They play 90s R&B and new hip-hop. The cocktails are delicious and strong.
