I am trying to help a customer at my retail establishment locate Pear or Pearl Light beer and cant seem to get any answers. I have been told it is only available in Texas but also Arkansas and Oklahoma but not sure. Does anyone have any information on the availability of this beer?
Try your local distributor: http://www.pearlbeer.com/locator/default.aspx. Given that Pabst doesn't really push this beer at all, you may have to special order it for him.
Last I checked, Pearl was brewed by Pabst, and only available in Texas and Oklahoma. Their locator suggests that you're right about Arkansas too, but both AR and OK have only one distro. Pearl is terrible though. I've seen it at a number of ice-houses, and I know that it's available at Little Woodrow's in Houston for $2/can, if your customer is in or goes to Houston.
