Description
In 1996 Pabst, once one of the largest breweries in the United States closed down its production in Milwaukee after 152 years. Since then Pabst’s legacy brands like Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR), Old Milwaukee, Lone Star, Rainier, Stroh’s, Old Style and Schlitz are brewed under contract by third parties. For nearly two decades, MillerCoors brews and distributes all of Pabst's beers under an agreement. In 2019, it has entered with City Brewing Company into a 20-year contract production agreement until 2040. Pabst will gradually transfer from 2021 until 2024 its production from MillerCoors to City Brewing.

Can. Pours a clear light straw yellow with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has lots of sweet grains, corn and a bit of sweet straw underlying. Flavor is similar with sweet grain, corn and a bit of cookie backing.

Corn, barley malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with large white head. Lightly sweet barley malt and mildly bitter straw flavor. Light body. This is a really good light beer.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

12 ounce can into lager glass, best before 1/28/2019. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a small fairly dense and fluffy white head with solid retention, that reduces to a thin spotty lace cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Good appearance. Aromas of cracker, corn, white bread, light biscuit dough/pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. A bit of fruity corn aromas, but not overwhelming. Nice and pleasant aromas with pale malt/grains, and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, corn, white bread, light biscuit dough/pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, corn, white bread, light biscuit dough, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a short bit. Good robustness of pale malt/grains, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with no yeasty notes present. Moderate increasing dryness from bitterness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light body; with a very smooth, and fairly grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is good. Pretty thin, but not watery. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 3.8%. Overall this is a very solid light lager. All around good robustness of pale malt/grains, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Nicely flavorful for the ABV. Clean pils malt/grains, and solid earthy hop presence for the style. Not overdone on adjuncts. A nicely enjoyable offering; and well made style example for an ultra light beer as expected. Regular PBR is one of my favorite AAL.

A new beer from pabst! Can. Pours with lots of rolling carbonation. Same with the first taste impression, lots of cutting co2 on the palate. A little corn in the nose. Decent and refreshing taste, a little better than expected, no real ill attributes in there. Not bad, a pretty good example of an american light beer. Balanced. Not a whole lot of original pabst in there, tho. Reminds me a bit of Coors light, you know, a little of that cardboard attribute? Low alky makes this quite quaffable. Yes, overall refreshing ratebeer experience, thank you.

12 oz can from work. Aroma is dough, corn, grass, vomit. Pours pale yellow with a thick white head with excellent retention that laces the glass. Taste is very bland, even for this style. It's lightly sweet, finishing with a faint herbal hop bitterness. Watery and thin. Goes down easy, just as intended. Crisp, clean and refreshing. Good for what it is.
