2 Cult-Favorite Brands Are Launching A Beer Inspired By A Dive Bar Classic - Tasting Table
"The Pabst Blue Ribbon Grillo's Pickle Beer is a 4.7% ABV lager that combines PBR's light, refreshing malt flavor with the tangy, salty crispness of a dill pickle."
"Spear in a beer is a ritual that started in Midwestern dive bars because drinkers found popping a dill pickle spear into a light lager can enhance the crispness and tang of the beer."
"The tradition became particularly popular among PBR fans, who appreciated the way the vinegar and salt of the pickle subtly altered the inexpensive beer."
Grillo's Pickles and Pabst Blue Ribbon have collaborated to create a pickle-infused beer, PBR Grillo's Pickle Beer, with a 4.7% ABV. This lager combines PBR's malt flavor with the tangy taste of dill pickles, reflecting the dive bar tradition of adding pickle spears to beer. The limited-time release will be available at various retailers starting May 4, 2026. The collaboration also includes a NASCAR car design to be unveiled at a race event, celebrating the iconic nature of both brands and their connection to the pickle drink trend.
