LabattBlue Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Just curious...where in the US can you get a Labatt Blue from either a bar or store. I am assuming most US/Canada border areas carry it. I was in Florida on vacation the last two years and was treated to a steady diet of Miller, Bud, Coors & Amstel(no Molson to be found either).
BillsFanNC Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I have seen Blue & Blue light from time to time in the grocery stores here in the Raleigh area. There are even a few bars that carry it.
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Mostly the north but i found it in California when I lived there. Always in stock too!
bills_fan Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Believe it....the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. I was amazed and quite happy.
The Poojer Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 i can get it in a few retail places and bars in richmond, va, not alot of places, but a couple Mostly the north but i found it in California when I lived there. Always in stock too! 225286[/snapback]
sfladave Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 You can buy Blue and Molson Canadian in some stores here in south Florida but I haven't seen either in any bars.
CajunBillsBacker Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 You've gone national, i've found Labatt Blue in many stores here in South Louisiana.
JLO Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Mostly the north but i found it in California when I lived there. Always in stock too! 225286[/snapback] the stores carry it but good luck finding a bar that serves it, at least here in the L.A. area.
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 the stores carry it but good luck finding a bar that serves it, at least here in the L.A. area. 225296[/snapback] I was 55 miles north of L A in Oxnard. Your right I could get it in stores but not the bars.
Campy Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Farm Fresh carries Blue, but I'm not sure if they have stores in Fla.
BillsNYC Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 You can find Blue in lots of places, but Blue Light is tough to find. I got into a WAR with Labatt because they refused to send kegs of Blue Light to us at McFadden's. I assured them that we could go through at least 5 kegs of it a week...and they STILL wouldn't send it!
Kevbeau Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Hear in Jawja, you can generally get Blue in beer stores and in most grocery stores in some form (6 or 12packs). Blue light is more scarce. The only bars you can really find it at are generally the ones that pride themselves on their beer selection. For all you Atlantans, when I first moved down here ('99) I caught Three Dollar Cafe selling Genny Cream Ale as an English Import I was with some visiting friends from Rochester and we called 'em on it.
stevewin Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I have seen Blue & Blue light from time to time in the grocery stores here in the Raleigh area. There are even a few bars that carry it. 225285[/snapback] Do you remember which bars you've seen it in here? BTW - who's old enough to remember when you ordered one you said "I'll have a Labatt's" - not "I'll have a Blue"
gmac17 Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I was in San Jose last week and they had it in a bar.
yall Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Do you remember which bars you've seen it in here? BTW - who's old enough to remember when you ordered one you said "I'll have a Labatt's" - not "I'll have a Blue" 225403[/snapback] In Canada it would have been "I'll have a Labatt". No "s". Conversely, the proper way to order a Molson would have been "Give me a Molson's". Note the "s". Another note in the annals of Canadian Beer Drinking History!
theNose76 Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I was at the Westward Ho casino in Las Vegas one night this summer and they had bottles of Blue for $1 . I couldn't believe it because that was probably the crappiest casino I had been to (and I was at most of them). I played $3 blackjack there for about 2 hours and won like $10 total lol. While in Vegas I liked to drink Dos Equis (XX in Spanish), very good Mexican beer - much better than Corona. Also had it at a bar/restaurant in Orlando when I was living down there called The Ale House, they had tons of beer on tap and that was one of them. Also, when I've been in Canada (NF) I've always said "Canadian" when ordering a Molson, since it's on tap EVERYWHERE. But in the States I say "Molson".
drhockey Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 No problem getting Blue here in California, which makes me a happy guy
