NO!! Let PBR DIE!!

In epic beer battle, PBR sues to survive

Pabst Brewing and MillerCoors are headed to court, with hipster favorite Pabst contending that MillerCoors wants to put it out of business, reports Time. Pabst contends its existence relies on its partnership with Chicago-based MillerCoors, which brews, packages and ships nearly all its products, including Pabst Blue Ribbon, Old Milwaukee, Natty Boy and Lone Star. MillerCoors says it has less capacity for brewing and is not obligated to renew the deal, reports NBC News. The trial will be heard by a jury in Milwaukee County Circuit Court and is expected to last until Nov. 30. In addition to more than $400 million in damages, Pabst is asking for MillerCoors to work "in good faith" to help find a solution. For the sake of cheap beer drinkers everywhere, let's hope they do.
