COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Since 2001, contract-brewed for Pabst Brewing (San Antonio), as Pabst no longer owns a brewery of its own.

Established in Milwaukee in 1844, this is the original Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. Nature’s choicest products provide its prized flavor. Only the finest of hops and grains are used. Selected as America’s Best in 1893.

1/29/12. 12oz bottle. This tastes like hipster and I hate hipsters. It’s better than Bud Light. I don’t like any kinds of beers like this.

Pours golden with plenty of carbonation and a fluffy white head. A simple cheap pale lager. Has more taste than a lot of competing american lagers. Just simple taste of malts and hint of hops. This is drinkable, and even refreshing. Should be served very cold.

Cans. When I had this, it was a phenomenally bad beer. The metallic aspect was overpowering, and it was skunky. Maybe a bad batch. One of the few beers that stuck in my mind as nearly undrinkable, and I wanted to like this.

Ober (2121) - Bommelerwaard, NETHERLANDS - JAN 24, 2012
A clear yellow colored beer, with a big white head. The aroma of some malt with some flavors of fruit. The taste is watery, some sweet and in the back a little bitter. There is almost no aftertaste. Some very week flavors.

One pint can, 16 fl oz, at Grand Central in Miami, on January 22, 2012
At the PBR moment from the 70k forum family meeting.
Clear pale yellow color, white head. Sweet scent. Sweet, malty taste. Moussy mouthfeel, low bitterness.
Rather OK I think, could drink it again for sure. A lot better than many other pale lagers out there.
