MOOSEHEAD BREWERIES PRESIDENTIAL PACKS ARE DELIVERED ACROSS CANADA
SAINT JOHN, NB, June 30, 2025 /CNW/ - In March, Moosehead Breweries introduced the Presidential Pack, a limited-edition crate that includes 1,461 cans of the brand's iconic Canadian Lager - just enough to get through the full presidential term. Response was overwhelming. The Presidential Pack captured international attention, selling out - at a retail price of $3,490 - in just days and attracting a waitlist of more than 450 names. Now, just in time for Canada Day, the completed packs are making their way to lucky purchasers across the country. "The single biggest question we heard when we launched the Presidential Pack was: is this for real?" says Karen Grigg, Director of Marketing at Moosehead Breweries. "So we're delighted to confirm today that not only are they real, but they're here - Presidential Packs are now being delivered across Canada." Photos and video assets showcasing select deliveries can be found here. One lucky purchaser, New Brunswick's Randy Defazio, says the Presidential Pack will be the cornerstone of his July 1 celebrations: "When I saw the Presidential Pack, it hit me—this is what we need right now. Something that cuts through the noise and brings people together. The U.S. tariffs are doing real damage—driving up costs, hurting local businesses, and putting pressure on hardworking Canadians. But we don't back down. I'm proud of how we've responded as a country, and proud of Moosehead for stepping up with something bold. The Presidential Pack says we can stand our ground without losing who we are." Grigg confirms that the offer was intended to celebrate Canadian spirit: "Moosehead was founded in the same year as Canada, 1867. And we exist to recognize and reward the courage and resilience that defines this country. It's going to be a long four years, but we know we can get through it together, one well-earned beer at a time." Moosehead Breweries, based in Saint John, New Brunswick, is the last major brewery in Canada still owned by Canadians. Moosehead's Presidential Pack should be enjoyed responsibly. About Moosehead Breweries Moosehead has been led by the Oland family since 1867, making us the last major brewery in Canada still owned by Canadians. Our 157-year history is as rich as the flavour of our beer. Today, we exist to reawaken and reward the courage to go after what's difficult, because we know that obstacles are opportunities to show the world what you're capable of.

Some people are becoming obsessed with sleep trackers, and experts warn that could cause insomnia and make your sleep worse. This is how to tell if you have a problem. Here's what else you might have missed during your busy day: 1️⃣ Fear for the future: Workers in the wind industry are worried as President Donald Trump brings the once-booming business to a standstill. He paused federal permits and leasing for onshore and offshore wind projects and ordered a review of existing leases. 2️⃣ Domestic violence: More than 25% of men in the US experience rape, violence or stalking by an intimate partner. They often feel shame if they admit that they have been victims of abuse, and it's hard to get help. 3️⃣ Celebrity deepfakes: Bad actors are using AI-generated versions of stars' images, voices and likeness to promote scams. Steve Harvey and Scarlett Johansson are among those who have been victimized, and people in Hollywood want Congress to fight back. 4️⃣ Diving in: His name may be Jim Best, but that doesn't mean he's the best golfer — even though he spends most of his time on some of the world's top courses. That's because he's a scuba diver who fights alligators and murky water to rescue wayward golf balls. 5️⃣ Sexy chefs: Online cooking personalities like Donut Daddy and Cedrik Lorenzen are posting 'thirst traps' for their followers.

Canadian Brewery Selling ‘Presidential Pack' with 4-Year's Worth of Beer
The trade war between the U.S. and Canada is heating up as leaders from both countries trade 25% tariffs and other regulatory threats. At the center of the tariff tiff is booze, with Canadian stores stripping shelves of all U.S. alcohol in an act of patriotic solidarity. Brown-Forman, the producer of Jack Daniel's, said such boycotts will be 'worse than a tariff,' when it comes to the impact on the bottom line. Well, the fight has opened the door for the opportunistic and, on Friday, Moosehead Breweries based in Saint John, New Brunswick, unveiled the "presidential pack," a crate of 1,461 of the brand's Canadian Lagers—one beer per day of the Trump presidency. Most Read on IEN: Today in Manufacturing Podcast: Boeing Closes Shadow Factory; Volvo's Counterfeit Part Problem; Micro-Factories Build Homes Boeing Closes First Shadow Factory New Volvos Came with Counterfeit Parts Toyota's Best-Selling Trucks Have a Mud Problem The Presidential Pack is designed to help 'weather four years of political uncertainty' with one Canadian beer each day. The crate costs $3,490 plus tax and deposit, and it's available to residents of Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia—home delivery is even included. Founded in 1867, the same year as Canada, Moosehead Breweries is the last major brewery in Canada still owned by Canadians, according to the company. In the announcement, Moosehead said, 'While four years may seem like a long time, together, we will push forward, as we always do. One day, one well-earned beer at a time.'
