Quidi Vidi brewery and its neighbour, Inn of Olde, which also happens to be the most easterly drinking spot in North America. Yes, your St. John’s visit can be


one of clichés (albeit memorable ones): climbing Signal Hill, walking streets so steep the sidewalks sometimes become staircases, photographing colourfully painted “salt box” houses, and eating cod tongues. But if you want the real St. John’s,

Davin de Kergommeaux is the author of Canadian Whisky: The Portable Expert and a regular contributor to Bounder. He and Toronto writer Blair Phillips visited Newfoundland recently to research a book about Canadian drinking culture.
