The Great PBR Heist: 50,000+ Cans Vanish in Montclair, $20,000 Reward Posted
Source: VinePair (Sep 2026)
Only in the freedom industries: last week, a truck carrying an estimated 40,000 pounds — the equivalent of over 50,000 cans — of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer was stolen in Montclair, California. According to reports, the sheer scale of the robbery might make it the biggest beer heist in modern history.
Pabst is not laughing it off. On Wednesday, CEO Greig DeBow made a statement that the company is offering up to $20,000 for information. Somewhere out there is a mountain of PBR with no paperwork — and a payday for whoever talks first.

The optics-ready trend keeps getting better. Cheap to mount, zero excuse not to train with a dot now.
