Pabst Up For Sale
The Pabst Brewing Co., owners of Pabst Blue Ribbon and Schlitz, is on the market for around $300 million. What do you think?
Charlene Burnside,
Paramedic
"A whole brewery? That makes more sense than my original plan to buy 300 million individual cans."
Ronald Birkin,
Wood Carving Machine Operator
"That's sad. You know whoever buys the brewery is just going to cut costs and make shitty beer."
Alan Wong,
Systems Analyst
"Aw, man, I can't afford that! I'll have a Bud Light instead."
