A russian company bought up the brewery that makes Pabst Blue Ribbon, which used to be considered a great beer, then a cheap bum drink, now its caught on again for "Hipsters" drinking it as a gag.

CBS was on top of it with the column though:

"The lame jokes from Logan Square to Brooklyn will all be the same: Take that, hipsters!"

They knew I would make a lame joke before I even knew!


The same company also made "Colt 45" and Shlitz beer. Poor Lando, his favorite beverage D:




As an aside, PBR is considered a high end expensive beer in Japan, which I find strange considering it tastes like watered down monkey urine to me.

Sounds good to me.

Psh, hipsters were drinking PBR since Russia was the USSR.

The title was was more interesting than the story ended up being. Shame.

The opening line of that article is hilarious to, a "Are they just going to make the can red, for COMMUNISM?" joke? Are you kidding me!
