    Hello to all.
    I got this can of Old Milwaukee at Walmart when I was in Mexico, and on the can says Made in USA, produced and exported for The Stroh Brewery Co.
    I'm looking for this on BA and I only find one made by Pabst

    Is it the same beer?

    Pabst bought most of the Stroh brands (including Old Milwaukee) in 1999 when Stroh got out of the brewing business but continues to use the Stroh name (along with many others it owns, like Falstaff, Schlitz, Heileman, etc) as a "dba" brewing company name on it's labels.

    You can see a list of them here Pabst Brewing Co's Portfolio

    Question: why were you buying Old Milwaukee at a Wal-Mart in Mexico?

    Well, I just wanted to try it, I also wanted to get a bunch of other brands but there were sold only on 6packs unfortunately.

    Lol, mudbug.
