Winnipeg Canada craft beer spots
I come to Winnipeg, Canada once or twice a year because I represent a company based here. June is a great time to visit and the temp was awesome (80F+). Had some rain in the mornings but the afternoon/evenings were perfect. I usually stay downtown and this time I stayed at the Humphry Inn […]
