Is that due to an affinity for Fred Pabst's legacy in the ski industry?

In the early 2000's with a lack of marketing the hipsters as they call them favored PBR because they were not being marketed to. However, their advertising was low key and very niche focused with the ski industry being one of the targets through publications like SKI, Powder, etc. Some examples:
Sponsoring Events
and their website circa 2005
For the fun of it go to Liftopia blogs and search for PBR you will be surprised how many articles come up here is one of them:

Well played.
I like PBR because it's cheap and easily accessible. In VT, it's on tap at once place for $2; another $2 tallboys. Awhile back, I was able to get 30 packs for $13.99 OTD in New Hampshire.
For the record, I don't wear skinny jeans or a scarf, or black rimmed glasses or think that anything mainstream sucks.

Kids being kids?
I feel the same way now. But there was a time when I was in my late teens that I didn't really have the appropriate level of respect for those around me. I still think I was at least decent - e.g. I tried not to swear when there were kids around, for example - but especially in groups + alcohol just ups the ante for douchy behavior.

I'm guessing the most up to date version of this chart would show some more growth of Leinenkugel's, as they sold a ton of summer shandy last year and made a big name for themselves with it

Used to be a good summer beer. Since being bought out by Budweiser and brewing moved to Newark, NJ it is now just Bud in a green bottle.

Ha! But now that nobody cares that I tele, and I still choose to do it, all the cognitive dissonance is giving me existential dread!

By the way, in 1998 at the Dogwood Acres in Maple Summit, PA, you could buy a totally unhip and non-ironic PBR pounder in a bottle for $1.25. Throw down $2 and feel like a high rollin big tipper.
