So is this an 'unlicensed' theme or does it relate to some music band or brand? I'm starting to feel old not knowing 
If it just a re theme I hope they put the gobble hole back. You really need a gobble hole for beer.

Wouldn't surprise me.......PBR is making a comeback with the new owner (Eugene Kashper). Eugene will be opening a micro brewery in an old church on the old PBR brewery grounds in Milwaukee making brews that haven't been made in 80 plus years. That whole area is being preserved pretty nicely by a bunch of individuals which was spear headed by Jim Haertel. So much history on those grounds, it is one of my favorite spots to hang out in Milwaukee.
Quoted from Rarehero:are they going for the hipster demographic?
Come over to my place and after we power down a suitcase of Pabst Blue Ribbon, I'll explain it to you.
Quoted from mnpinball:If this was Hamm's beer themed it could sell out in the upper Midwest alone
And the art would be a given...
No, Hamms buyers will not buy a machine or put quarters in. I drank the cheap swill back 30 years ago. This is broke people crap.
I wonder now many of the nerdy types are very disappointed with this as a theme selection.
Utter shock, I tell you!
Way back in high school even the kids wouldn't drink that cheap beer. They said it tastes like horse piss. I always said "and you oughtta know!'... I've never tried the stuff myself.
Or maybe I'm thinking of Black Label beer?
We used to dump cases in the lake and float around in inertubes. It floated and kept the piss kind of cold. When you needed a beer you grabbed one. When you were done you sunk the empty. Funny we never got out to piss. Oh wait, I didn't do that those older kids did.

A lot of Pabst drinkers (and hipsters) at my favorite pinball hangout.

There's only one more pinball theme needed to complete the Shorty's vibe.

Classic!
Love floating the river, pbr is kinda popular here, kinda. I'd like to have a whoa nelly, but the theme was not a hit for me, pbr might be cool, hoping for a color high Rez pic soon
Quoted from flashinstinct:Pabst is a beer?
Worst is I was asking a serious question... I have no clue whats so ever what Pabst is. As a Canadian we don't get this kind of beer here.

Yeah, you guys drink that high society Labatts's stuff 
It will be interesting to see the msrp on this, i dont see a PBR fanboy ponying up $5k+ for one. Maybe its just a promotional giveaway

Did you ever stop to think a pinball fan might want one?
Not everybody is into fairies or 80s movies.

We do have it in canada and always have its all my brother in law drinks. Pabst blue ribbon

You southern Ontario folks are practically American so it doesn't count LOL
Shit that's like 2km from my house. Now I won't have a choice but to really see what this Pabst thing is all about. I'm I going to taste water with a sliver of a hoppy taste, the entire fizz of a soda bottle, or the thickness of a guiness... I guess I'll soon find out
You just gotta rotate those cheapie cans to keep the palate guessing. I generally run in fiscal quarters. 3 months of Boh, 3 months of PBR, 3 months of Genny, Schiltz & naturAl light, and then round out the 3000 pack with three months of Boh. That's a solid year. Feel free to rotate the PBR thru twice a year(instead of Boh) Honestly it's a half shake better. But enough about drinking. This machine is the worst. Wrong wrong and wrong. Oh and stupid. Dunb and stupid and wrong ;boilinblood;
When PBR was broke ass beer It wasn't a big deal.
Then it got a hipster reboot and it's a thing.
But of course they'll just say they dont really care.
I would throw a quarter in it.
But 3 plays for a buck?
That Nelly better have a PBR between them melons.
Quoted from o-din:Not everybody is into fairies or 80s movies.
I like fairies! 
Quoted from Gryszzz:Eject me all you want but don't f***ing delete half my shit and try to clown me.
It's called ejection without erection.
I mean deletion without completion.
Deletion without recognition! That's the one.
Quoted from Gryszzz:Why did you mods remove half my conversation in that other thread ?
F*** that noise. Eject me all you want but don't f***ing delete half my shit and try to clown me.
F*** whichever one of you that did that.
Free speech!!!!
Quoted from Gryszzz:Why did you mods remove half my conversation in that other thread ?
Fluck that noise. Eject me all you want but don't plucking delete half my ship and try to clown me.
Fruck whichever one of you that did that.
Gryszzz,
Focus back on beer and melons.
Remember back at the Indy 500, we saw a couple young rowdy dudes get escorted by police to the Time Out Area.
...and we managed to stay out of that bummer zone.
