Quote:Uh Miller is still American Beer, so NO Europe is not > USA, you blasphemous troll!

You're right
Hey Guys, the Russians Aren’t Buying Pabst After All
<p class="">Remember in September when it was announced that Oasis Beverages had acquired the Pabst Brewing Company? Well, it turns out that never happened.

Lots of great breweries right here in Jacksonville! Intuition, Engine 15, Aardwolf, Greenroom, Pinglehead to name a few. If you've never tried good beer before, you should definitely try it.

Haven't tried them yet, I'll have to stop in soon! And I just noticed they are based in Tallahassee which explains why I hadn't heard of them.
