I dont think 3.2 beer has ever been sold in Michigan. I wouldnt know where to get it. Moving from here to Denver I had no idea 3.2 beer was a thing. When life was normal we wouldnt look for beer with less alcohol, wed look for beers with more. Canadian beers have always been big here in Michigan for that reason. And if you went to the duty free you could get real Canadian beers that approach 10% and even higher if you get the Ice versions. Molson Ice is like 14 %.
Grew up in Michigan and people made fun of Bud Lite and Zima drinkers.
Molson Ice debuted in the US right around the time I started college and was very popular. I don't remember it being even close to 14% though. My recollection is that ice beers were close to malt liquor (5-7% alcohol content depending on brand).
Haven't drank in a long time though.
The stuff ya bought at the duty free is the Canadian version and it is over 12. The stuff ya bought at the party store in Michigan wasnt.
I grew up outside Detroit so from the time I hit 18 I was back and forth on many weekends. Beer, strip bars, casinos all with an 18 drinking age. Always hit up the duty free for some tax free beer with higher alcohol. Then I married a Canadian gal. Her family is in London area. Over 40 years hundreds of crossings between Detroit, Port Huron and the Soo. Last time was Christmas 2019. We havent seen the wifes family since.
