Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR) by Pabst Brewing Company
Well here it is, the original Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer! This one’s a classic and a favorite, especially among the beer drinkers in my town, Asheville, NC. It’s always on special and never lets you down!
As far as how good of a beer it is, this one’s a real toss up. As I’ve mentioned before, PBR has its certain place in the world, just like any Adam Sandler movie. (Sorry Adam Sandler; I do like your movies, however; please don’t feel insulted).
PBR has a great foam head, just like the majority of the other American domestic pilsner beers. The color is that perfect urine light gold you expect out of a cheap beer. The aroma is pretty much of American pilsner, the response you’d get from a piña collada-drinking housewife with no taste for beer.
I will admit that I’ll take down many a PBR, quite happily. When money’s tight, PBR will take good care of you! PBR also makes a great beer for long-weekend camping; just pick up a few suitcases and you’re set! (Just wedge ‘em in the river behind a rock; mountain river water is the perfect temperature for cooling beer!)

You’re right! Every time I buy a PBR, I expect it to taste like watery shit, and you know what? It “never lets you down”.
