Note that I'm not great with IPA, English is my second language, and I made this while stoned 2 years ago, so it might not necessarily be accurate! :P I'm pretty sure that's how most people pronounce it here. Although Canadian English is a wonderful mishmash of American and British Engliah, with a hint of French and Indigenous influences.

How do people say it in your neck of the woods?

It's obviously not your favorite type of beer :)

[r] is like the trill (as in Spanish, Polish, etc.). You're probably using either [ɹ] or [ɚ], depending on how vocalic your R is.
