I think that's not just you and me... that's the mentality for many university level Canadians... I've heard of bars selling more "domestic premium" (that's Moosehead and company) than plain ol' domestics on "normal" days. Hence the invention of cheap domestic pitchers and $2 domestics days!
(ps, yes I'm from KW - Oktoberfest anyone?)
Besides, it's posh to be a beer snob : "I don't _drink_ Labatts!" mostly a fad. I see mostly "older" (read 35+) people drinking domestic beers.
Oh man, I have a craving for beer!
As for microbrews (going on a tangent here)... when I was in Denver for my grad trip - we ordered a microbrew. We were warned that it was very heavy. Now, I rather enjoyed it, but it was not a heavy beer. It was waaay lighter than any beer I drink normally!
