On this day August 26, 1983, the cult classic comedy “Strange Brew” hit theaters, starring the hilarious duo Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas. The film, which became an iconic piece of Canadian pop culture, follows the misadventures of brothers Bob and Doug McKenzie as they attempt to expose a sinister plot at a local brewery.

Did You Know?
The word “Eh?”—a quintessential part of Canadian slang—was said a whopping 174 times throughout the movie, adding to its uniquely Canadian charm.
