This has been a review I've been meaning to do for a year or so now - Pabst Blue Ribbon Strong Lemonade. I've wanted to try this beverage but it was only available in 12-packs so I didn't want to try it just to find out I hated it, though I knew it was doubtful as PBR's Groovy Lemon Iced Tea is one of my go-to beverages when I want something non-beer, as we know.. PBR is world famous for their iced tea and vodka beverages 😂. Will this beverage make me stop buying Mike's Hard Lemonade permanently? PBR Strong Lemonade is described as made with real juice, this classic and refreshing lemonade is a balance of sweet and tart with a 5.9% abv kick.
Appearance: Has a cloudy water kind of look to it, not the most attractive looking beverage so far, as well has a light white hue to it. There's a light amount of bubbles on top but not an overly carbonated beverage by any means.
Aroma: Definitely very lemon-forward. It's moderately sugary sweet and actually reminds me of the iced tea but without any of the tea.
Taste: Slightly tart with a definite lemon flavour to it. As I'm drinking it I get a definite sugary sweetness that's very reminiscent to the iced tea again. Slight vodka bite to it, but for the most part it's decently smooth.
Overall Thoughts: Does this beat out Mike's Hard Lemonade? I'm overly nostalgic about Mike's as it was that beverage I was drinking in my teenage years, so it doesn't have that very sharp presence Mike's has.. which some love and some hate, so personally I love. So, it's definitely not a Mike's but I think this will be in regular rotation, so if you like boozy lemonade and don't feel like making it yourself, this is definitely a good option.
