Fail? PBR is popular as are Chrome bags. From a marketing standpoint it was a smart move. I really do not see what there is to discuss here.

With all the PBR I've consumed, I'd wear the hell out of that bag.

Boo, it's a standard blue chrome bag with a crappy version of a pbr logo on it.

Weird, pbr is one of the few cheap beers I like. If it replaced budweiser and miller, I'd be totally happy.

Yea it sure is stupid when companies market to their core audience.

Also its either PBR or something a bit nicer like Oberon. Lots of Flying Dog too.

Only group of people I know who put Schlitz as their #1 cheap beer.

I'd use that bag. I wouldn't pay extra for it, but I like the beer and chrome bags are ostensibly not bad (no experience with them myself). You'd be surprised how little messengers, guys who race, or people who regularly put in 50+ mile rides really care about what the trendy kids think is "too trendy and therefore no longer cool" really.

I signed up. Also, PBR has been jokingly called around here as the "People's Beer of Richmond".

I don't really like beer in general, but I've consumed enough PBR hanging out with bike people that I've come to expect it after a long ride.

I drink there all the time. They no longer have schlitz, blatz is their new cheap beer. They also no longer have food, which is unfortunate. I'm actually planning on going there tonight if this rain stops.

Also, Schlitz and Stroh's are the exact same beer, my friend's girlfriend works at the miller coors brewery and they just sell it under different names in different areas.
