Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries has released the list of U.S. booze products that will be available in its stores Wednesday.

The lengthy list includes well-known American whiskey brands such as Jack Daniel’s and Jim Beam, Bacardi and Captain Morgan rum, and Carlso Rossi and Manischewitz wines.

The province previously announced which of its stores U.S. liquor items will be available at, including seven in Winnipeg and five elsewhere in Manitoba.

“Products and quantities vary by store and are only available while supplies last,” the Liquor Marts website states. “Please visit the store directly to see what items are available.”

Inventory lookup by location is not available on the items online or by phone, and they are not available for delivery or click-and-collect service. All sales are final.

“Hold requests are not possible due to high customer interest,” the website states.

Premier Wab Kinew said Thursday that $1 million worth of an estimated $3.4 million in U.S. alcohol will be offered for sale after being pulled from shelves in response to U.S. tariffs. A total of $500,000 from the sales will be given to the Christmas Cheer Board in Winnipeg and to charities in Brandon and Thompson.
