    Because I was at a party and it was in the cooler.

    I don't because I'm not a faux hipster? I'd drink Hamms though.

    The last time I drank a PBR was in 2005. It was the only beer that my friend had in her fridge. I enjoyed it but haven't had one since.

    I don't always drink PBR... But when I do... It's generally because I'm sauced and it's all thats left

    It's cheap, easy to drink, and isn't BMC.

    Back in the 60's when I was a lineman for GTE, the whole line crew would go to the Club Bar in Hobart, Indiana and cash our pay checks every Wednesday and then drink PBR till it came out of our ears. PBR is as good today as it was back then...

    As others have alluded to: Bue Velvet.

    That is the reason. Otherwise it's no different than Keystone.

    Because my 90 year old grandma says it's what she drank when she was young, and there's nothing cooler than slamming pbr tall boys on the porch with your grandmother.

    I like PBR a lot. It's a great American Adjunct (if those even exist). On tap, it's fantastic while bowling.

    Just because my sister-in-law drinks it all the time, I thought I'd try it...sure, it was served in an iced glass...maybe that is why it tasted so awful.

    Only if my aim is simply to get drunk and I'm at a bar in the City that has $1 PBRs.
