The Labatt brands are brewed in Canada by Labatt Brewing Co., and are imported and sold in the United States by Labatt U.S.A. About half of the sales of Labatt brand beer in the United States are to customers in the Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse metropolitan areas.

What caught me off guard was that 1/2 of all Labatt sales in the US are in those 3 cities. I didn't think Labatt's had a very strong hold in the US, but to find out it sells 1/2 of all its US products to cities within 60 miles of each other is suprising. Any upstate New Yorkers have an idea as to why Labatt's is popular in those area's?
