Welllll, I did drink Labatt's Blue, because you could buy it within my working travel range and not have to switch to a strange brew when you crossed provincial lines. Labatt's Lite is akin to BL and Blue is akin to Bud. Labatt brews the Buds we get here. The real reason I switched to Bud or BL is, DOUBLE full power to shields... belay that, FOURPLE full power to shields, Bud is the only one that funds the .... the... dare I say it ?... NRA. Yes, I dare say it and damn proud of it ! Freedom is not without a price.
