The Regular Beer Project: Pabst Blue Ribbon

4.74% alcohol. Introduced in 1844.



"Pabst Blue Ribbon is brewed in the finest traditions of an American Premium Lager dating back to 1844. Brewed with a combination of 2 & 6-row malted barley, select cereal grains and American and European hops, Pabst Blue Ribbon is fermented with a proprietary lager yeast. Our unique fermentation and maturation process results in a smooth, full bodied beer with a clean, crisp finish with a fine noble hop aroma."

What had slipped my mind was to bring up the point that until 1957 Pabst Blue Ribbon was the number-one selling beer in America, when it was surpassed by Budweiser.
