Blue Dry  - 6.1%, this Crisper, drier finishing Lager was available years ago, (and is still available in Quebec only), but Labatt is bringing it back with the recent popularity in high-alcohol beers. Blue 55  - 2.3% and only 55 calories - it's Labatt's low-cal beer. Blue Lime will only be available this Summer until September, no word yet on when Blue Dry and Blue 55 will hit your local Beer Store. Cheers!

The sodium content sharpens the high points of these beers. Try Muskoka Honey Brown Ale, Denison's Weissbier, Robert Simpson Confederation Ale or Mill Street Sparkling Ale. Rich Marinade - This is for the burger lover who bastes his meat in dark, mysterious gravies and tangy BBQ sauces that enhance the beef flavour. You'll need a broad, strong brew to up the flavour ante.
