Alcohol limitations crossing into Canada from U.S - Splashing Niagara Falls and yacht sailing on river

I'm planning a trip to Canada from the U.S. this summer and would like to bring some craft beer to share with family members who live there. How much will Canada customs allow me to bring into the country? Is it possible to pay duty on any excess that I try to bring across? FYI, I'm traveling by car, and would like to bring around 6 cases of beer.
