Coors vs Blue Ribbon

At Olde Sonoma Public House, we're all about exploring the world of beer and having a good time doing it. Recently, a lively discussion broke out among our crew about two iconic American beers: Coors Banquet Lager and Pabst Blue Ribbon. Both have their loyal followings, but which one reigns supreme? Let's dive into the debate.


Coors Banquet Lager: The Classic Choice

Coors Banquet Lager is a crisp, refreshing beer that's been a staple in the Rockies since 1873. With its golden color and subtle malt flavor, it's a go-to for many beer enthusiasts. Coors Banquet is a beer that's steeped in tradition and has a loyal following, particularly in the western United States.


Pabst Blue Ribbon: The Underdog Favorite

Pabst Blue Ribbon, on the other hand, is a beer that's experienced a resurgence in popularity in recent years. Once a staple at frat houses and dive bars, PBR has become a cult favorite among hipsters and beer enthusiasts alike. With its light, crisp taste and affordable price point, it's no wonder PBR has become a favorite among those looking for a no-frills, easy-drinking beer.


The Verdict?

So, which one is the better beer? Well, it ultimately comes down to personal taste. If you're looking for a classic, easy-drinking lager with a rich history, Coors Banquet Lager is an excellent choice. If you prefer a lighter, more laid-back beer that's perfect for sipping on a patio, Pabst Blue Ribbon is the way to go.
