Why Pabst Blue Ribbon Could Go Extinct

Maybe that could be good for the Pabst brand if they bring it back in a coupla years



Prolly not.

 

This makes me very sad. Got a 24 oz pbr for $11 at the house of blues in boston last Friday. You cant beat those prices.

 

Other than the extremely low price, I will never understand why people actually enjoy this beer. Don't get me wrong, if I was at a party or bar and someone gave me one, I'd drink it, but I'd never order myself one.

 

I just lol'd. same shit here just HOB, Anaheim.

 

Old Style > PBR

 

And this shitty beer going away is a problem how?

 

please post your favorite beer so we can imitate your incredible palette.

 

I personally don't drink PBR but this makes me legitimately sad for my friends who come out to my bands shows and pound $2 beers all night.

 

What's going to be the official beer of FEST now!?

 

It's a good thing I am going to the brewery in Milwaukee in 3 weeks before they close up shop.

 

For the price the quality of the beer is actually really good. You can't beat the value. It's no Treehouse or Dogfishhead, but you get more than what you pay for.

 

On taste alone, gimme a PBR before you give me a Bud/Miller/Coors.

 

Id do Miller>PBR>Bud>Coors.

 

Miller>Coors>Bud=PBR

and that's final

 

Or they could simply lower supply. I understand the production capacity challenge of meeting today's demand/supply, but who says they need to? There are worse problems than demand exceeding supply, although yes I recognize you need to be able to meet your commitments to retailers.

 

It's nothing special. I think a lot of the popularity was due to hipsters having it at all times. Well that, hand rolled cigarettes and riding their bike everywhere.

Coors, really isn't that bad ha.

 

larry arms fans are shook

 

I mean, its not the worst beer I have ever had, but I just don't think it really tastes like anything. Same with bud light. Too flavorless.

 

I sure hope so.

 

Steel Reserve

 

When I was a sophomore in college, we bought a kegerator for our dorm room. PBR (and Killians) were the only kegs we could afford. Ive had a soft spot for both ever since.

Also remember going to one bar I hung out at in my 20s where they’d sell you an entire 6-pack of PBR still in the plastic rings and we’d walk around and toss out PBRs to others.

Good times.

 

i enjoy a nice cold pbr especially when my local grocer sells them in 12's for $7.99

i am not above pbr

 

PBR is like White Castle: if you're buying it in any less than a 30-pack, you're doing it wrong.

 

But light is water. Im being honest.
