I do hate to go off topic but I just wanted to say that the Blue you drink in Michigan is the exact same Blue drank in Canada. Same liquid, same brown bottle, just a different label for the American consumer ('Import'). Most of the time half a run will be Canadian Labels, then they will switch to American labels.
Sorry to go off topic again but..... I have to agree with PRZ. The Labatts Blue sold in Michigan sucks and is not the same as it is in Canada. It may have the same label some off the time, (most of the time it's the import label), but as far as I know beer in Michigan can not have a 5% alcohol content as it does in Canada. Therefore doesn't that mean there is some change in the brewing process that changes the taste and lowers the alcohol content? I have tried Labatts Blue from the Duty Free in Canada and the Blue bought from the local store here and it doesn't taste the same. Maybe the Labatt beer in Michigan is just watered down. Give me the real thing from Canada! (with a TTH single please).
