Editor’s note: This story was updated after the Jan. 18 Lucky Lager talk at Kiggins Theatre was rescheduled to 7 p.m. Feb. 22 due to weather. 

What’s your pleasure: the X, whether bold and blocky or squished flat; the ribbonlike, elegant L; or, some smart mashup of one or more of these familiar symbols?

Whichever Lucky Lager logo you prefer, Vancouver beer historians and memorabilia collectors Pat Franco and Tyler Castle will pour you a tasty backstory.
