@Levi: Please, the full quote from Frank is “Heneken? Fuck that shit! PABST BLUE RIBBON!”

And yeah, I just had a couple dollar Pabsts with dinner tonight. It’s 10 bucks for an 18-pack at the grocery store, too.

Now that you mention it, Sacha, I haven’t seen Rolling Rock in many places here in NYC. Although it’s definitely all over the place in the West Coast.

Daniel: That’s Manhattan. Things are slightly more affordable in Brooklyn bars. Slightly.

I remember Rolling Rock being the canonical affordable beer in the Northeast – has PBR claimed so much of RR’s market share there that the latter isn’t even on your radar?

A CAN of PBR is THREE DOLLARS? SEVEN bucks for a pint of Guinness? A pint of PBR is a buck here. Guinness (My goodness!) is four. That is robbery – absurd, absurd robbery. Get yourself out of dodge, man!

I can’t believe you wrote this piece without quoting from “Blue Velvet”.

Thus spake Frank Booth: “PABST BLUE RIBBON!!!”

Gotta second Howard’s recommendation of Pacific Standard – it was the place for me and my friends to get PBR (I think they might be the ones who used to have free pizza on fridays, too!)
