Sudoku #24

24 hours in the day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence?

The two-four is a long-time Canadian tradition. At one time in Ontario, the beer stores were called "Brewers Retail". You would take your case of empty stubbies back to the store for the deposit. You'd put your empty case on a roller conveyor on one side of the store, order your favorite Labatt's or Molson's, then go to the other side of the store. After a short wait, your new two-four would come clattering down the rollers.

These days, you go to the "Beer Store", where you can find a a much greater variety of domestic brands. The stubbies are long gone, and most stores are now largely self-serve. The beer is also better, with many breweries eschewing preservatives and other artificial ingredients.

Does beer help you in solving Sudoku puzzles? Probably not. You need to keep your mind sharply focused on the task. Todays puzzle, especially, needs your full attention.
