Call it the Great Beer Bet of 2014. President Obama is putting a few brewskis on the line in a wager1 with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper as the men's and women's hockey teams from the U.S. and Canada are set to face off in the Olympics.

未来几天,美国总统奥巴马需要送给加拿大总理哈珀一箱啤酒,然而奥巴马此举并不是以酒会友,而是因为他输了与哈珀的打赌。并且,奥巴马有可能会再输一箱。

I'm betting @barackobama one case of Canadian beer per hockey game this week. #teamusa is good, but #WeAreWinter. #GoCanadaGo @WhiteHouse
 
-- Stephen Harper (@pmharper) February 20, 2014
 
The president is betting cases of the White House Honey Porter, which is brewed2 on the White House grounds with honey from First Lady Michelle Obama's beehives.
 
Obama and Harper spent the day together in Toluca, Mexico, for the North American Leaders Summit Wednesday, where they "agreed to disagree on who to root for" in the upcoming hockey match-ups between the U.S. and Canada.
 
"For a very brief period of time, I might not feel as warm towards Canadians as I normally do – at least until those matches are over," President Obama said.
 
Team USA's women hockey players are going for the gold against Canada on Thursday while the men's teams play Friday.
