The Highlands Grille in Kennesaw GA where I play most of my trivia redid their menu.
I walked in this week and along with the food menu, that handed me a huge beer menu.
They have a lot of microbrews on taps, and they lovingly, and at length, described each draft beer, along with specs and awards.
"Unique".. "light-bodied"... "blueberries".. "hint of"...."1998 World Beer Festival Bronze Medal".
A pretty long paragraph for each beer.
Now, they have an ice cold $5.00 pitcher of PBR on draft, so I hadn't paid much attention to their $4.00 to $7.00 pint beer.
So, I started reading down the list.
Got down to the Pabst, and instead of a loving paragraph it simply said:
"Pabst Blue Ribbon - When Price Matters".
I laughed a lot.
SCAR, how big are the pitchers...? If they ain't those little tiny ones, five bucks sounds like a good deal. Pabst ain't bad, but even if the deal was for Blatz or even Olde Frothingslosh, I'd buy them at that price.
Check out "What'll You Have?":

p.p.s. It looks like English majors, who specialized in creative writing, are finding work composing exotic descriptions of beers for bar drink menus.
