I don't know if this was mentioned, but my buddy tried to grab a large beer as the second half was kicking off and he was told that they are not selling large beers after the half any more.

I hardly see people I know drinking Blue anymore. I swear it use to be Blue or Canadian for the most part. Now Its so often Bud, Bud Light, Coors ...and for others its Craft beer. How did these Big American brands take over the dominate Canadian, Blue and Keiths that I swear use to be what everybody was drinking!!
Anyone surpsied this season they are just handing you your beer in a can and not pouring it into a cup anymore?

In case anyone doesn't know, Budweiser "America" will only be available in the US. So you don't have to worry about seeing the brand here.
I was also surprised that I got a water bottle with the cap left on Saturday. Not sure if that's a new policy, or just a matter of training & experience for vendors, considering the construction was hardly done for Saturday?
I think this has to do with the company paying for the promotion.
For example, the Firkin on King has steins available on Thursdays at a discounted rate - they serve the typical domestics and a couple of other beers in the steins but only those beers. If you ask for a different beer in a stein that night, they won't give it to you because the company is essentially paying for the special. At least, that's how it was a year or so ago.

I know all the beer takeovers and what not, its just weird to see how Canadians loyalty to a certain beer (for example some people would always drink Blue, others always Canadian) all of a sudden have shifted to more original less tasting Big American Brands like Bud Light. I prefer the craft beer model tho, don't support any single brewery locally, but do stay loyal to drinking good tasting beer, and supporting some local craft breweries is a bonus!
