Tap. Pours light yellow, slightly cloudy. Small white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Grassy, almost chemical aroma. Flavor is grassy with a little fruit and notes of preservatives. Very thin, almost watery in body. No hop notes anywhere in the profile. OK if ice cold and the day is blazing hot, since you can drink them one after another and not get drunk. Otherwise, pass.

May 2010: This beer is an old friend from long ago and when I saw it on tap at the Burger Bar (Las Vegas) I had one for old times sake. Not sure about other beers in this style (on tap) because I don’t come across any, but this looked fine, golden, bright and clear, with a good white head on top. No real aroma to get your nose round, hints of a hop maybe, but gets my regular score of three for a non-smelling lager/pilsner. Refreshing and thirst quenching, just like a lager should be, ideal throat cleaner before I hit the bars heavy brews. I enjoyed it, brought back a couple of memories of drunken sports fields and tins laying around, happy days.

Bottle. Very light yellow with a brief white head. Light and sweet aroma with some corn and some bread. The taste was very bad and boring. Corn, bread and something chemical. Almost no aftertaste. An awful beer that went to the sink.

Originally rated November 2004. As you can see in most reviews, Pabst Blue Ribbon is one of most drinkers favorite cheap beers. Poured a pale golden-yellow colour with a descent foamy head and actually left some lacing. Aromas were hoppy, and taste is there too. Not big, but it is there. Carbonation is not much visible. A crisp beer with a smooth aftertaste. Very drinkable. Recommended for bands (for the jams).

Taste hides the chemicals well but the sour aftertastes builds after a few sips. The utter despair a swill like this induces in me concerning the past, present and future of beer is as unfathomable as the endless pitchers I drank of this. Tastes like if you boiled down a normally shitty lager, painted the leftover past on a gritty brick wall in an alley then licked at it after a hot day of sun. Hell.

One pint can, 16 fl oz, at Grand Central in Miami, on January 22, 2012At the PBR moment from the 70k forum family meeting.Clear pale yellow color, white head. Sweet scent. Sweet, malty taste. Moussy mouthfeel, low bitterness.Rather OK I think, could drink it again for sure. A lot better than many other pale lagers out there.
