Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR) for short is a brand of beer sold by Pabst Brewing Company, originally established in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1844, but now based in Los Angeles. Pabst Blue Ribbon is contract-brewed in six different breweries around the U.S. in facilities owned by Miller Brewing Company.
The appearance consists of a pale yellow body with a foamy white head that dissipates pretty quick. Decent amount of lacing afterwards but ends bubbly with a good but short-lived head. The body is moderate, with carbonation a tad on the high side. Not as watery and thin as one might expect, really surprised.
The aroma is weak with some hops and maybe some baker's yeast? idk. It definitely smells like beer should just not a very pleasant one.
The taste is of grain, light hops, and light malts, and surprisingly rather crisp. One thing that caught me off guard was that there was some sludge left over.
This beer is light, fizzy and flavorful, overall, one of my favorite beers. Recommended by a college student in that the cost is quite low, less than a six pack of Bud, way less.
Taste best straight out of the can, especially on a hot day.
Thanks for reading and always please feel free to leave any comments you may have. Until next time, drink one for me.

Miller Genuine Draft
The Miller Brewing Company is an American beer brewing company owned by the United Kingdom-based SABMiller.
The appearance is that similar to that of a lager beer. This beer pours a very pale straw yellow color with nearly no head. It almost passes for golden, but I won't go that far. The feel is smooth with a good amount of carbonation. One bad side is that this beer is thin and watery.
The smell is of sweet cereal with a lot of corn and some skunk. The smell is not too strong but is the weakest point of the beer.
It tastes of hoppy sweetness and grain and has a mild bitterness with a dry finish. To be fair I can taste some malts in there as well. The taste isn't great but better than the smell.
Overall fairly middle of the road. No major attractors or detractors. Fairly bland, good on a hot summer day. This is a pretty good beer for what it is, would take a Michelob or Yeungling over it though. Best served from a bottle. Overall this is better than I thought it was going to be. It's very drinkable, but nothing special.
