Simple supply and demand. In Winnipeg/Canada...light beer is the most popular choice...in Jamaica it's Red Stripe.

The cost at the wholesaler is now the same for both beers...but that's still a fairly recent event.
Maybe the pricing at the bars has not adjusted for the price equaliser...or it's still simply still seen as supply and demand at bars.

And, I think it sucks also that there's less in the bottle.
But, Yaaaaayyy Dru's...for the best pricing around!!
