I also love the classic look that the can has kept for years and I hope it never changes, it’s just perfect, old fashioned, American, and its easy to spot and know it’s a PBR! I’m a country boy, but I know all sorts of people like it and I hope everyone can keep enjoying it for years to come.

I lived in Portland during this time and I saw its rise. Hipsters were taking over the town and Pabst was along for the ride with it. Portland turned from a small cool city to one that was being ruined by hipsters coming from all over the country and stealing away all the charm from the city. I had to leave because of the rising cost of rent and move back to Alaska. I have to explain that young people leave Alaska around their early 20’s and usually Seattle or Portland were the two choices when picking a new home away from home for several reasons: they were the 2 closest cities, you had other friends that lived in those two towns and they were affordable in cost of living. Seattle had become overrun so Portland was the only choice after that. But now Portland has become overrun so now Alaskans have an even harder time when they want to leave the state and start a new life. Hipsters may have saved Pabst but they have killed the northwest!

@@timkaczmarowski8151 Because Stroh's disappeared from Detroit after 1985, when the owners shut down the Gratiot brewery and put 1200 union workers on the unemployment lines. They sent those jobs to Texas to save on labor, and it made the Stroh's brand anathema to pro-union Michigan. Nobody in Detroit would be caught dead drinking a scab beer, and that stink remained for decades. So, even if he would've been able to buy it locally, Clint's character of a retired United Auto Workers union member would've made him unlikely to drink Stroh's. BTW, 2022 was the first year Stroh's was sold in metropolitan Detroit since Pabst bought them in 1999. It's supposedly using its 1860 recipe.

ThunderAppeal, My statement describing this documentary as a "college level essay" does not refer to the inferences it makes, but rather how it makes its points, supports them, and analyzes them from many, many angles. In my experience, when you write college level essays in humanities, the world is not limited to your own preconceived notion of how the world is and ought to be. It's a very complex system of cause and effect coming from multiple angles at once. And a "college-level essay", by my own, arbitrary definition, is able to articulate the impact on something from as many of those angles as possible. I understand that you may have a dislike for "millennial" or "college-educated individuals", but this isn't about politics, liberalism, or anything of the sort. **I strictly refer to "college-level" as a standard of writing and communication of thesis.**

I'm glad this was said. I'm sure what they said in the video has some truth but you can't deny that it was also a very cheap beer. A very cheap bear that would be on tap at cheaper hole in the wall bars. Millenials are the biggest generation ever and also we were, at the time, the ones with the highest college graduation rate but many of us were underemployed. So you went to a townie bar to drink instead of one further into the city where you'd pay more for beer because it was nicer. That nicer one wouldnt ha e pbr but the hole in the wall would. So many broke people in their early 20s are reaching for pbr. Miller light was cheap too and consumed a lot.

Back in the 1980's in Seattle. In my early twenty's. We all looked and dressed like hippies, so identified as hippies, but never went to an anti war anything. I was in the Washington National Guard and people called us baby killers. Getting to the point, we drank Bud, Miller, Coors, Rainier. We didn’t know what a kraft brew was because they didn’t exist yet. We knew about PBR but nobody touched that. It was for our parents. You NEVER saw evidence of PBR drinking unless there was a family function where we hung out with our families, or went to visit cousins in farm country. Naturally, my cronies et al were protesting older social conforms while doing exactly the same thing but with different clothes and hair. We were doing what we were told, exactly like the hipsters are doing now. A young coworker has a Pabst cap he wears every day. I though Pabst was dead and gone. He says 'oh, no, everybody drinks PBR'. Great beer long live PBR I guess.

You are forgetting the entire east coast Metal and Hardcore scene saving Pabst as well, It's always been popular esp in Rva since i been going to shows mid 90's , So maybe in Richmond Va it never really died.

I'm no hipster, but I do enjoy an ice cold PBR from time to time. My great grandpa used to drink PBR and several of my family members on my mom's side of the family drank pbr, so I guess that's why I like it. So if I get drunk on the PBR, it's a family tradition.

PBR became popular during the recession as a cheap beer to have at a bar. People weren't buying as many 5 buck plus taps at that time. Also, when Pabst laid off a shit ton of workers in 96 those men and women lost there pensions. I remember the people of Milwaukee stopped drinking Pabst in protest.

I may be a beer geek, but I’m not a beer snob. Love me a good hazy IPA, Belgian, Guinness, saison…But there are days where an ice cold can of PBR is just as enjoyable and satisfying as any craft beer. I don’t drink it “ironically”- I’m not a hipster, but it fits right into its special place when I want one. I now always have PBR in my beer fridge.

I live in the Bay Area and still buy PBR. It is cheap 8 to 9 bucks for a 12 pack. When everything else is expensive (Modelo and Budweiser are like 18 bucks at the liquor store not including tax, not to mention living expenses). you can at least buy a 12 pack of PBR, Hamm's, or Olympia for cheap, and a tall boy at the bar for less than 5 bucks. When your short on cash but still want to go out or just chill. I know in Oakland, PBR used to have a brewery, and my Grandfather used to drink it. Plus they sponser art. So yes cheap, nostalgic, and trendy. Whatever I don't care what others think.
