The vast majority of their beers are brewed by Miller.<BR/><BR/>As to the taste, to each their own. I personally feel that every style of beer has it's place and just because I don't particularly like a style, don't feel the need to mock someone else that does.

It has pretty wide availability here in Wisconsin and it doesn't really seem to be catching on. It does seem to be "more" full-bodied and hopp-"ier", but that's a pretty relative term that still leaves it far short of eminently enjoyable. <BR/><BR/>Its bigger problem is that it is priced at Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02125346445306449573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-2319405652197569202009-02-09T18:18:00.000-08:002009-02-09T18:18:00.000-08:00I know that PABST is contract brewed and have to a...I know that PABST is contract brewed and have to assume so is the new Shlitz. I hear the success of PABST with the Gen Y's crowd has sparked these "Old" styles to be reproduced. I wonder if PABST and Shlitz become highly marketable, God Forbid, what new digusting beer trends will come our way? <BR/><BR/>BTW, PABST sales increased 67% in one year! <BR/><BR/>Do we really want the beer revolution Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-5052037626774309072009-02-09T09:52:00.000-08:002009-02-09T09:52:00.000-08:00I have to assume my comment may have sparked this....I have to assume my comment may have sparked this. I would go so far to say that Schlitz is probably the best macro lager being brewed now. For one thing, it actually does have some flavor from the hops and some heft in the body.
