Pabst Blue Ribbon


















































Pabst Brewing Company? Miller? Who knows.

Smell

The smell is not one of PBR's finer qualities, corn, earth, sulphur, tin...funky and unpleasant.

Appearance

Clear pale golden yellow with a fizzy head that disappeared quickly.

Taste

Drink it ice cold and drink it fast. At 33°, the taste is not all that bad if you hold your nose. At 34°, things go downhill quickly and the smell gets even worse. At 35°, pour it into a pot and use it to cook bratwurst.

Comments

PBR is not a beer I would normally drink, but one was plucked from the ice and hurled to me from a second story balcony into the pool. I had just finished a sweltering round of golf and I must admit, it tasted pretty good and I even asked for another to be thrown to me. But, after having one in the controlled environment of my house, it was pretty bad. The key to PBR is to drink it ice cold.

The best thing about PBR is the old school design on the can.
