I dunno Boxboy, I say both sometimes. At a bar I usually just order a "blue" and that covers it. Nobody would say "I'd like a Budweiser's" but they also wouldn't say "gimme a Stroh."
Bigsky: I can get Blue just fine in Michigan... it came up in conversation that someone drove around Ohio for 45 minutes trying to find it and couldn't.
SOB: Nope, didn't need any more Blue last night.
Nash: It's Canadian, and yummy. Aren't you a Canuck? You can't even find your own beer?
Mickey: Glad to hear it. The specific place was Put-In Bay -- the friend drove around to multiple party stores in the area and eventually gave up after the employees gave him a perplexed look when he asked for it.
Pongo: Labatt is yummy.
