That must be their own 404 redirect. I can get to the directory, but no directory listing, so I have no idea about the image to make a better link. I'll have to dig into it some more - however, consider it may have already been moved/renamed/deleted.

Requires javascript and a referral from within their site, but here it is:

Douchebags it is!!!!!

Hey now. PBR (along with Stag) is one of the "featured" beers at my local junior hockey games. Then again, I show my preference for foreign beers at the games by buying that gold standard of mass-produced beers... Molson Canadian.

Actually, just HOW BIG of a motor *COULD* you drop into one of those cars? If not a big block V8, what about a heavy-duty V6 racing motor??

PBR is one of the better American Adjunct beers. Admittedly, they're are better available, but they tend to be obscure local brews.

Interesting Fact - Billy Carter's beer of choice was Pabst Blue Ribbon. :lol:

Well, the booster club gets a deep discount from one of the local distributors in town (who is a big sponsor of the team), so it's PBR, Stag, Molson Canadian, Molson Golden, Coors, Coors Light, Blue Moon, and Killian's. I usually go with either Molson Canadian or Coors. Of course, knowing most of my fellow spectators, the hockey game is where they go to get their "fancy-ass" beers.

Given those choices, I would go for the Killian's - I typically have a few in my beer fridge. When I visit my grandson in Georgia, my DIL always has a 6-pack of Killian's in the fridge for me. (They can't get Boulevard Stout in Georgia. :x )

It's too bad PBR has become a cult favorite of the hipster-douchebag crowd. As HTRN pointed out, PBR is one of the better Merrican Adjunct beers, IMHO too good for that crowd. It was my father's favorite 'fishing beer'. I bought him a case of Bud once - he drank a couple just to be polite and I wound up drinking the rest - and he went back to his PBR.

As for the DeLorean - meh............. I have a 240-Z. :)

I'd take the Molson or the Blue Moon. I like Killians well enough, but I prefer the others.
