    Because it's freaking awesome and I have a the coolest PBR trucker shirt with supervisor on it! I get more attention from this than I do my good looks.

    I don't drink PBR, if I do drink an AAL it's Old Style, but I am wearing a PBR t-shirt right now.

    The last time I had a PBR, I was watching "Blue Velvet" back when I was in college... 25 years ago.

    Because I drink what's in my old man's fridge when I come to visit. So he supplies the PBR and I bring the bottle of Black Label. :-)

    Shitty Mexican beers? Sorry, didnt know that PBR and Budweiser were stratospherically much better than the Mexican beers. Pretty sure if you pick up a Mexican beer, it will be refreshing and a good choice. Stick with Budweiser.

    It's a decent beer, enjoyable in the warmer months, and $4.99 a six pack.

    I've never had PBR.

    However, one of my coworkers today was talking about how that's the only beer that one of his friends ever drinks, and described it as tasting like "a bucket of warm hamster vomit." I hope he hasn't actually tried hamster barf in order to make that comparison. XD

    I've actually never had it, and probably never will, unless it is the only offering at some random function I attend.
    And then I will drink it just so that I can tick it :wink:

    Cheap: $1.50-2.00 16 oz. cans at several watering holes in SLC. $6.99 12 pk. cans at all supermarkets. It tastes good on a hot summer day in the high desert sun!

    Because when in a bar with crappy beer, I know what I'm getting with PBR, and I find their particular corporate connections less nauseating than the other options available.

    I haven't had a PBR since 1968. I use it to boil brats in and to baste chicken when I am grilling. I also made bread with it once.

    Because I'm a hipster. Wait, what's a hipster? Lol. PBR sucks! I actually did a blind tasting between Miller Lite and PBR and I easily chose Miller Lite. The funny thing is I thought I chose PBR.
