    Irony here is that Pabst itself is now merely a shell company owned by some Greek predatory capitalist. So it's only an "American" company by technicality.

        It's funny that Pabst are now trying to market to all-American beer drinkers alienated by Anheuser-Busch’s sale to a Belgian corporation.

        I was the opposite previously boycotting Bud because of Anheuser-Busch...

        Not that I ever drank it very often.
        I'm not sure if it's fact but they used to put formaldehyde in Budwieser products sold outside of the US as an extra preservative. The Budwieser I tried to drink in Asia didn't taste the same as Bud does here. The only American beer that I found to be drinkable over there was purchased here. The Navy used to (not sure they still do) carry a certain amount of beer onboard ship for drinking if the ship is out to sea for more than three months at a time. The only time you'd be at sea for that long on a surface ship from the Pacific fleet would be in the Indian Ocean near the Persian Gulf.
        I went to a keg party in a campground once where they were drinking Pabst. After an hour or so most of the other people there were puking their guts up. I was one of the only people standing after a couple more. I guess I have a higher tolerance for shitty tasting beer. I was probably the only person who drove home that night. The rest of them passed out in their cars or slept in the dirt that night.

          That's one of the beers I keep on tap down here in Hell to torment the damned!
          I'm not a fan of it, but it ain't THAT bad....

          Apparently is was chosen as the "hipster beer" because not just was it cheaper than Pudwieser and wChOORS, it's actually better with a distinctive after taste. They also don't advertize, which was another plus...

          It was on tap at a local watering hole by my work, and it's not bad on tap. But FFS I wouldn't want it as the last beer on earth by any means...

            I could give a fuck who owns them. I actually drink Stella on occasion. I actually thing Bud isn't too terrible, as long as it's not the light beer version, which should be used to give enemas only. But damn, is there a chemical preservative (most likely) in there that gives one hell of a hangover...

              I believe at the beginning of the hipster Pabst craze, PBR was owned by a nonprofit holding entity or something. I think they had to sell it because they were actually making too much money because ironically they were a nonprofit that didn't advertize and wasn't some snooty craft brew outfit...

                I have to say, it's pretty damn good for a shitty beer.

                  Cheap beers rule. Fuck a bunch of boysenberry and all that other shit microbrew crap. You're not supposed to sit around with a bunch of guys and talk about all the flavors in the beer you're drinking. Fuck that. It's supposed to taste like beer. Period. You drink it, you catch a buzz, you make sure the chick you got your eye on drinks it too. End of story.

                    I'm not into yuppie beer but there's cheap beer that tastes alright and cheap beer that tastes like horse piss. I drank Meister Brau a few times. It's cheap but it's drinkable. My brother buys Busch. It's cheap but it's not drinkable. He buys it so nobody else drinks it.

                      Some people like Bud. Some people like Coors. If you like one you probably don't like the other. I haven't had a Pabst since the kegger I went to when I was a teenager but I didn't like it then so I probably wouldn't like it now.

                        I honestly never tried it before until a couple of weeks ago. I bought a 6 pack of 16 oz. cans for $4 and change and was pleasantly surprised.

                          I like the cheap shit, but after drinking cheap for 20 odd years, craft beer sampling is kinda cool. I've become an IPA person, but I do need a break from them every now and then. They certainly don't refresh after mowing the lawn like a shit beer.
