Hey, let's buy a Pabst

No, not a bottle or can. I'm talking the whole freakin' brewery!

Rick Stain just pledged $100,000.

Of course, in real life, there is no Rick Stain, which is why these pledge-based things are always lame publicity stunts.

 

How much we got in the kneecap-Berman fund?

 

Whether you drink the stuff or not - hey, I do sometimes because it's $1 a pint during happy hour at several taverns in Microville, which is right in the heart of the craft brewing region - the revival of the Pabst brand is one of the neat stories in beer drinking.

We poor people need a cheap, affordable beer to swill. Sometimes it's hard to justify plopping down $3.50 or $4 for a pint (unless it's Widmer hef, yum).

 

Has the fad if hipster doofuses drinking PBR to be ironic ended yet? Did it die with the trucker hat revival?

 

Don't think that dead's yet.

And Micro, Miller Lite -- in a can -- is a much better, less pretentious, shitty beer.

 

I would rather drink Keystone, Busch Light or pond water than Miller Lite.

 

But you're 12. What do you know about beer?

 

I'll take a cold PBR or High Life any day.

Red White and Blue part of the deal?
