Streets of Toronto Raccoon Lager

Streets of Toronto’s charity brew, Raccoon Lager, scores big with beer lovers

This summer, making a difference is as easy as enjoying a cold brew. Streets of Toronto’s debut charity beer, Raccoon Lager, created in collaboration with Tomorrow Brew Co., is not just quenching thirsts but also supporting the Daily Bread Food Bank. Since 1983, this essential organization has been battling hunger in our city through over 250 agencies, and now, every sip of Raccoon Lager contributes directly to their cause.

Raccoon Lager, meticulously crafted for bold flavour and refreshing crispness, has become a summer staple, available at various restaurants and a whopping 64 LCBO locations across Toronto and beyond. Each case comes with four collectible cans, each featuring one of Streets of Toronto’s quirky characters like Kenny Sington, the graffiti artist and Lawrence Park, the finance bro.

 

The brew even holds the title of the top beer SKU. If your preferred store has sold out no need to fret — all locations are in the process of being restocked. For a complete list of stores, click here.
