Never heard of Schooner or Toby. Are they legal in the US?
What about Point? My sister couldn't fit her car in the garage because of the empty Point cans that were accumulated in there. I heard a rumor it was trendy on the east coast at some point. Suckers.

Black Label was big in the '50s, '60's apparently, and then enjoyed a resurgence in the late 80's because I started legally drinking (no actually it is because they were the first in Canada to switch from the stubby (boo hoo) to the long neck (which became trendy).
Schooner & Toby should be illegal anywhere. Not good stuff. But I think they stopped making both of them about 15 years ago so no worries about encountering them.
I have never heard of Point. Now I am remembering "Laker" beer. ("Laker, Laker Laker!") and Steeler beer (not named after the Pittsburgh Steelers).
