The used to serve them 2 at a time (1950's,) you couldn't buy just one. They claimed that was the law, but might have been snookering us guys from the states.

I would think you're right, Paul.
For decades now, we Canucks have perpetuated this myth that "our beer is stronger" than US beer. Truth is, back when my Dad was a kid, that might have been true. Over the years, ours has gotten weaker (5% is the norm) and yours may have gotten stronger. At one point, we measured the alcoholic content differently, so your's said something like 3% or 4%, but it was actually the same as ours.
Now, all our mainstream beers taste pretty much the same (ie: like swill). I defy anyone to tell me in a blind A-B taste test, which is Labatts Anything or Molson's Anything. Experts can't. Even our "ales" and "lagers" taste and look the same.
The other truth is that Canadian and American national brands taste pretty similar these days. After all, North America is pretty much the same for marketing purposes.
cheers, frank
