New Amsterdam Gin

Pabst Blue Ribbon is a ubiquitous premium American lager that has been a favorite of hipsters and the proletariat alike for decades. It is owned by a parent limited liability company Blue Ribbon Intermediate Holdings, LLC. This company was the product of a merger between TSG Consumer Partners and Russian-American entrepreneur Eugene Kashper, who also co-founded and chaired Russia-based soft drink and brewing company, Oasis Beverages. This iconic American beer company is one of the largest privately-owned brewing companies in North America and is currently run by CEO Paul Chibe, who formerly worked with and grew international confectionery, the Ferrero Group, which is the third-largest confectionery company in the world.

Founded and originally brewed in Milwaukee, Pabst Blue Ribbon, more commonly referred to as “PBR” or simply “Pabst,” is currently being brewed in and distributed from San Antonio, Texas. Pabst Blue Ribbon is partially owned by San Francisco-based American Private Equity Company, TSG Consumer Partners, which has also invested in such popular and pervasive American brands as Famous Amos and Stumptown Coffee Roasters. No matter what American city this company has been based out of, Pabst has been brewing and distributing one of America’s favorite beers for nearly 200 years and has earned itself a die-hard and loyal cult following.

Like many other popular and common full-bodied American lagers that tend to come in right around 5% alcohol by volume, the well-loved and predominant Pabst Blue Ribbon Original American lager contains 4.8% ABV. Made with select grains, malted barley, and European hops, Pabst Blue Ribbon has a unique and endeared flavor that is often described as slightly sweet and slightly bitter — the perfect combination for a well-rounded lager. At just 144 calories per beer and 4.8% alcohol by volume, it’s no wonder this highly drinkable and affordable ubiquitary has only continued to grow in popularity over the past couple of decades.

To this day, Pabst Blue Ribbon is brewed in the same classic style as it was brewed in 1844. PBR's crisp and clean full-bodied flavor, paired with its incredible affordability, make it an American favorite and a fantastic gift for the malted American beer-lover in your life. Originally marketed as “the working man’s beer,” Pabst Blue Ribbon remains one of the most popular American beer brands available today and is almost certainly going to be a crowd-pleaser at any party or gathering. Be the beer hero and use Drizly to have PBRs delivered to the next get-together you attend.
