Gross....seriously. We have so so so many excellent microbrewery in Alberta and especially Calgary and speaking as an actual beer snob why would I drop $12 bucks for witch urine skannk sweat at a game.

MOLSON and Labatts suck ....woof. I guess someone needs to come out with a heroin patch so I can feel like I'm sitting in the nosebleeds 8 in playing my best air guitar while falling down really steep stairs screaming like Eddy Murphys fat aunt falling down the steps

Help me lord I'm falling down the steps ,,

Oh well. Time to sneak in Mickeys of Crown or good ol wine skins filled with thr good stuff.

Dear god I hope Banded Peak remains. I know they are corporate owned, labatts, so good chance they will end up out, but .... fingers crossed some good beer sticks around.

Otherwise, what sort of craft/microbrewery does molson own that's in the area? That's likely who will swap in, if (assuming?) Banded Peak gets punted.

Why the heck won't they just sell Coors Banquet, best of all worlds.
They will, it’s called Coors Original in Canada.

I don't consider myself a beer snob, and I can usually choke anything down, but I had to return it as it tasted sour. Tried another tap at the same location and it was still sour... choked that one down before turning to Banded Peak afterwards.
Wasn't just me then. Had a Coors Original on Saturday at the Hitmen game and tasted fine. Switched to Canadian and it was terrible.

Not in the area, but Granville Island and Hop Valley are both owned by Molson.

I have "boycotted" Molson for 30 years. They once had a contest for 1MM if you could name the top 30 NHL Players of all time, they gave some hints on players so you could start to populate the list and then they had a checklist of hundreds of players to chose from. On thier final list of Top 30 Players...Harold Snepsts. Nobody won the contest.

Now this is a grudge I can get behind. That is a solid grudge. Kudos to you sir.

If you want to drink a plain ole lager and drink a lot of it camping or with a game or whatever, can't go wrong with PBR or even Old Mil. And I say this as someone who is a local craft snob.

It isnt a beer tasting its a multimillion dollar partnership...micro brews are kinda irrelevant
