Look at that bottle! I don’t know about you, but I’d definitely pay $8 for a 10 ounce pour of PBR if they advertised it like this in the U.S.

Here’s my ranking of domestic beer available in China:
- Tsingtao (yes, it’s better than what comes next)
- [Taiwan Beer, not actually available in the mainland AFAIK]
- Yanjing Beer (formerly branded as “Beijing Beer”, which is now a name used for some regional Asahi thing)
- HANGZHOU BEER. Avoid.
There are also a bunch of newer brands that I haven’t tried.
Good to know – thanks!
Snow Beer! I will not rest until I have the choice between a Tecate tallboy and a massive Snow Bottle on a Saturday night.

HA! Don’t believe everything you read. Pabst used to market itself as a nerve and digestion remedy, back in 1915.
Very good
Aren’t you sort of fueling the stereotype by posting about Asian PBR ads on a blog about the Mission?
Why does this matter?
I just liked it and thought people would be interested. I figured that we all have some self-awareness and we can probably deal with the fact that it’s sorta obv while still getting a kick out of it.
It’s actually a different beer (supposedly).

Interesting. I thought about that, but the fact that it said “Blue Ribbon” made me think it was the same. This makes the whole thing a little more sensical.
After reading this you may be leery about drinking anything yellow coming from China.
