why are nu-boys obsessed with pabst blue ribbon. I was at a bar once and this guy wouldn't leave me alone about pbr and eventually I told him I would order one and then he acted really smug and asked me if it was good.

These. Pabst is famous for being a shitty, cheap beer, drunk by hard working manly men who need a shitty cheap beer to dull the pain of their physically demanding hard construction jobs. Having been isolated from any form of masculinity their entire lives, these 'males' seek to gain it by proxy, by associating themselves with this mythology.

More than likely, but wax and oil are WAY cheaper than buying regular bud. When I go to the dispensary they charge $10-15 a gram for good stuff, or you can pay $25 for a tube of oil that will last you a week. Wax goes for about $5-10 a gram which will do close to the same.

> the company has opted not to fully embrace the countercultural label in its marketing, fearing that doing so could jeopardize the very "authenticity" that made the brand popular (as was the case with the poorly received OK Soda). Pabst instead targets its desired market niche through the sponsorship of indie music, local businesses, facial hair clubs (RVA Beard League), post-collegiate sports teams, dive bars and radio programming like National Public Radio's All Things Considered.

Hipsters going after what used to be white working class. That's it.

The insecure masculinity, soyboy, and nu-male stereotypes have nothing to do with this, especially in 2017. Some insecure beer haters go as far to argue that ALL beer drinking is somehow a nu-male hobby, often with the additional claim that no one genuinely likes the taste of beer.

I only buy PBR on draft at places like Applebee's where it is cheap. At B-Dubs I have bought it once or twice. I would take it over a light beer, but I would tie it with regular Budweiser. I have never tried Coors Banquet but I have a feeling it might be a similar style. It goes great with chicken tendies or a nice burger.

I see it described as a "cheap" beer and that's not really true, at least anymore. I'm 23, so I never bought beer before hipsters got to it. If I buy a canned beer, I would think maybe Miller High Life. For cheap drunkenness you can't beat Milwaukee's Best Ice. $1 for a 24oz can is very reasonable, the taste is not terrible, and the alcohol content is a solid 5.9%.

Don't make any consumer decisions, positive or negative, based on image. Taste is subjective; I personally like everything except the more extreme craft styles. Price, alcohol content, calories are quantifiable. I won't make fun of you for drinking PBR. It's a good all-American beer with a decent flavor. But is it worth seeking out? Not really.
