Love and marriage. Pork and beans. Trailer Park Boys and hard liquor.

Some things just go together.

So it’s great to report that the Trailer Park Boys are going legit with the booze and launching a new whisky called Liquormen's Dirty Ol' Canadian Whisky. The hooch is named in honour of ruthless Old West stagecoach thieves who didn’t care about gold or jewels — only liquor. It’s already available on the East Coast, Manitoba and Alberta, and now it’s finally coming to the place where heavy drinking is pretty much mandatory for survival: Ontario.

On October 6, Bubbles (Mike Smith) and Ricky (Rob Wells) will visit the LCBO stores at Queen’s Quay (11 a.m. – 1 p.m.) and in Liberty Village (2 p.m. – 4 p.m.) in Toronto to sample Liquormen’s rye whisky and meet their fans.

That’s a Thursday. Make a note: you’ll want to book off sick from work.

Check liquormens.com and you’ll discover that the alcohol is, “Distilled and aged for three years in charred, white oak casks,” and that it is, “smooth on its delivery of spice, caramel, and vanilla notes with a long-lasting finish.”

Amen.

Canada’s favourite inebriates — Julian (John Paul Tremblay) included — phoned up earlier this week to talk about touring, TV and booze; it seems they have plenty to report.

WHOSE IDEA WAS IT TO GET THIS LIQUOR THING GOING?

JULIAN: “I’m the businessman of the group, I’d say. I think I’m the most successful of the three of us, as a business person.”

SO, NO MORE METH LAB?

BUBBLES: “We had a honey oil factory! We never had a meth lab.”

JULIAN: “That’s pretty bad.”

RICKY: “Wrong show. That’s Breaking Bad.”

JUST KIDDING. WHAT SHOULD FANS KNOW ABOUT YOUR LCBO VISITS?

BUBBLES: “Tell people me and Ricky are gonna be there and we’ll be at two stores getting right on that liquor. People should come down and have a drink with us.”

WHAT TOOK SO LONG TO GET THIS RYE WHISKY INTO ONTARIO?

BUBBLES: “No idea! We’ve been asking for a while. It’s everywhere else.”

RICKY: “The BCLO or whatever they call it. It's work! You have to take time in your day to make phone calls with these guys, and try to persuade them. But they’re all on board with it now.”

HOW DOES YOUR RYE STACK UP AGAINST GEORGE CLOONEY’S TEQUILA?

RICKY: “I’d put this whisky up against any of them. I’ve tried pretty much every one out there. Ours is really, really good. I think he just put his name on it. I don’t know if he did all the sampling and got as drunk as we did.”

YOU PROMISE THIS STUFF IS GOOD?

RICKY: “It’s tasty. We had to do a lot of taste testing and drinking and we definitely found a good one.”

JULIAN: “It’s super-smooth for sure.”

BUBBLES: “I’m not a big whisky drinker, but I can drink this stuff on the rocks. It’s delicious.”

WHAT’S UP WITH THE STILL DRUNK, HIGH AND UNEMPLOYED TOUR?

JULIAN: “We’re touring in the south.”

“And and we got one over in Europe for Christmas.”

IS THAT THE DEAR SANTA CLAUS GO F—K YOURSELF TOUR? YOU’LL BE IN SWEDEN, NORWAY, DENMARK?

BUBBLES: “They seem to like us there. We were in Europe last year too and in Norway, Finland, all those kinda places — those were among the biggest shows we did.”

EUROPE IS WHERE THE NEW NETFLIX SERIES, OUT OF THE PARK, IS SET, RIGHT? OCT. 28TH HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED AS THE START OF THE 11TH SEASON!

RICKY: “Damn right!”

JULIAN: “It was a very stressful time over there. It was pretty stressful on the three of us but we made it out of there alive.”

RICKY: “Yeah, we thought it was a vacation. And we basically had to work the whole time we were over there!”
