What are you looking for?
Pabst Brewing Company, originally called Best Brewing, was founded in Wisconsin in 1844. Steamboat captain Frederick Pabst married into the family and got involved in 1864. While known for its 'Blue Ribbon' brand (and related collectibles), Pabst's early brands included Export, Bavarian, Bohemian, Hoffbrau and Standard. Another 1880s brand, called Select, had blue ribbons tied around the bottle neck and became wildly successful.
Breweriana spans a wide range of items having to do with beer and brewing. Key categories include cans, steins, trays, labels, and openers, plus more unusual items such as tap knobs, bar statues, and etched glasses. Many collectors also focus on specific brands such as Hamms, Pabst, and Budweiser.
