Pabst Brewing Company
Brewed at Miller Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Pale Lager
Woodridge, Illinois USA

Can says: "America’s Best Tasting Beer". Well. I say “3FAveryRogues WORST rating.” 6 pack of 12oz cans for $2.99. At THAT price point its either THIS, Hamm’s or Milwaukee’s Best Ice. Busch and the other crap, though pints (High Life, Old Style, Budweiser) are at least 30-90 cents higher, canned. Like it matters? All are bottom shelf junk. Similar to walking to the grocery checkout with adult diapers, tampons, suppositories, condoms, prep H, or any other embarrassing hygiene product. YOU KNOW! @ 22 years old, the clerk definitely looks twice when you’re buying this. My regulars, who are on a first name basis, pretty much started recognizing me from the $10+ bottles and 6ers. Pretty embarrassing to bring THIS to the counter. Like Franzia, Carlo Rossi, or King Cobra. Definitely caught an eye. Maybe some pity. BUT. I AM on hard times. I’ll give this a rate: [A] Corn. Sweetness. [A] Canned. And I wouldn’t give this the liberty of a glass. Even the can is ugly as hell. I know what to expect. Pale piss yellow. White head. (Rating from prediction. Oooh! When’s the last time you heard that?) [F] This tastes like metal. Tin. Aluminum. Grainy. Metal linger. That’s all it comes off as. Very weak corn and hop imitation that turns extemely rancid. Garbage. Even IF this has been sitting in the basement for too long. Nasty. [P] Yes, I would rather drink water. OR O’Douls. O’Douls is a million times better than this. With a better body and profile. *ANY* other macro but this. *PLEASE* I would give a 4 in palate to MGD @ this point. 3/2/3/4/8. Just terribly metallic here. Off. Offensive. Gives a terrible feeling to teeth in your mouth. Over carbonated once it hits the tongue. Wants to infect and spread. Can one compare a beer to AIDS? [O/D] Had I not contemplated suicide while rating this, I may have given a decent score. Hell. I can do my macros time to time. I can show respect for duping almost the entire U.S. market+. Bars, social events, family drinking, etc.... Drinkable American Lagers ARE a great task. It has to sell. And sell WELL. THIS was just forbidden, unless ICE ICE ICE ICE cold. EVEN L-i-t-e, MGD and Icehouse was a relief to this. Terrible. Who the fxck keeps Shlitz/O.M. in business?!?!

Can, of course. Light yellow, watery pour. Not much head. Corn and grain here, but no cardboard or metal, really, so that’s at least an edge up on some of its competitors. I’ll drink more of this.

Pours a yellow almost clear color. Aroma of maize, and corn. A strong distinct flavor of corn that gets less through the beer. A typical pale lager, nothing special.

Can pours a clear, pale yellow with a foamy, but short-lived white head. Corn and honey in the aroma. Light flavor with subtle presence of hops. Very little in the way of an aftertaste. Quite easy to drink though.

Can at Green Eye Lounge. Pale yellow, nose is somewhat corny with a touch of hops, but barely. Very easy to drink and no burnt notes, not overly vegetal. Actually, not too bad for a PL...

I feel like garbage. Huskies lost BAD to Oregon. I don’t feel like a beer, I feel numb. This seems appropriate. It says America’s Best Tasting Beer on the can. This must be really underrated. This looks good, why all the 1’s? Light, bright yellow, active carbonation and a strong 2 finger head that lasted for a reasonable about of time. Picturesque in the shaker pint. Aroma is fine, just fine. Light honey dry cereal, nothing heavy but nothing flawed. Wow. I was expecting to wallow. But this isn’t offensive at all. Little sweet, light bodied, I could see myself drinking these at a party. It’s not a beer I would savor, in fact I didn’t finish this one, but there’s more cereal in the sip, sweet all around, and nothing offensive to speak of. What the hell?

corn, nasty rotten smell, yellow with no head, rotten veggies taste, just unpleasant, damn. ugg no, not even good in its price class

bottle. Poured clear pale yellow with a thin white head. Light sour corn aroma. Highly carbonated. Very light generic flavoured beer. Finishes slightly dry. Meh! M-E-H. Meh!
