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

http://www.pabstblueribbon.com

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.

Smooth, run-of-the-mill American lager. I guess that’s what Pabst deserves.

From bottle. My late night drinking beer. Looks like golden water, taste like watered down beer. Better then most light beers.

My go-to cheap beer. Best of the cheap beers, IMHO. Decent body with unique taste. Allegedly all-natural ingredients. Rough texture is refreshing, but lack of smoothness inhibits drinkability. ---Rated via Beer Buddy

Botella. "This is the EXPORT version of Pabst Blue Ribbon"....Botella. Clear thin golden colour, small white head. Mild aroma of grain and something hoppish, quite mild. Thin watery mouthfeel. Mild flavour, some grain, something hoppish. Very light malty note underneath it all. Quite watery! Does not taste bad... there’s hardly any taste to it.......

A wise man once said this beer tasted like wet newspaper. I don’t know who this guy is, but this makes me laugh. While I would rather drink some old muds, this still does the trick.

The aroma is a reminiscent of sour malts, dough yeast, and a hint of sweetness, and the appearance is a golden yellow with a medium dissipating minimal head but a solid white ring on top of the liquid. The taste is quite sour, a touch sweet, and a touch salty; also, the palate combines average carbonation, abrupt finish, medium-light body, and a thin texture.

This is my favorite brand of water. Way better than Dasani or Crystal Geyser.

Pale yellow color. Light sweet aroma and taste. A typical american macrolager.

This beer is a poor excuse for a beer. It does have a flavour, which puts it above Budweiser, but it tastes terrible. This beer tastes like sweaty gym socks and urine.

On tap at Water Street Tavern. Pours a straw color with thin white head. Little aroma, maybe some sweet corn. Flavor is minimal but a some malt and minimal hop bite. Average macrobrew. Much better on tap than in a bottle.

Sight: Golden yellow with a thick head. Smell: not much aroma. Slight hay and bitter notes. Taste: Taste like a worse Budweiser. medium body and no hopy notes. Aftertaste: Short and mellow. Not much flavor lingers. Overall a good cheap beer, but not something to drink for pleasure.
