HISTORY ~ PABST BLUE RIBBON BEER Pabst Blue Ribbon, commonly abbreviated PBR, is an American lager beer sold by Pabst Brewing Company, established in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1844 and currently based in San Antonio. Originally called Best Select, and then Pabst Select, the current name comes from the blue ribbons tied around the bottles neck between 1882 and 1916. Gottlieb and Frederika Pabst and their twelve-year-old son Frederick arrived in the United States in 1848 and settled in Chicago where Frederick eventually found work on the ships of Lake Michigan. In 1862, Frederick married Maria Best, daughter of Philip Best, whose father Jacob Best founded the Best Brewing Company, and in 1863 Frederick became a brewer at his father-in-law's brewery. When Philip Best retired to Germany in 1867, Pabst and Emil Schandein his sister-in-law's husband and the vice-president of Best Brewery worked to transform the company into one of the nation's largest brewers, capitalizing on, among other things, the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 that destroyed nineteen Chicago breweries and helped position Milwaukee as the leading beer-producing city in the United States. In 1889, Schandein died, leaving Pabst as president and Schandein's widow, Lisette Schandein, as vice-president. In 1890, Pabst changed the "Best" letterhead to "Pabst" and the Pabst Brewing Company officially began. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ PLEASE USE THE EBAY "CONTACT SELLER" FUNCTION TO CONTACT US AND RESOLVE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING FREE SHIPPING ON THIS ITEM TO DOMESTIC ADDRESSES ONLY INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AVAILABLE FOR SOME ITEMS ~ CONTACT US FOR A RATE QUOTE BEFORE BIDDING WE NEVER CHARGE A HANDLING FEE & ALWAYS OFFER COMBINED SHIPPING >>>>>
