AND CHAMPAGNE — FOR GOODNESS THAT NEVER VARIES IN every glass of Blue Ribbon there are 33 fine brews from 33 separate kettles! Only Blue Ribbon brings to- gether these 33 fine brews. .. Not one,or two, or five . . . but 33! Each brew isas fine as the choic- est ingredients and Pabst’s 96 years of skill can make it! But brewing is a natural proc- ess, and Nature never yields two brews that are exactly alike, even 7% #e BLEND Zal Gottons Hz Lo - hist Blue Ribbon = with the same formula and strict scientific control. That's why Pabst goes to so much extra work and expense to blend 33 separate brews. The result is: America’s Pre- mium Beer, with a smoothness that is unique...a goodness that is always the same. Sometime today, have the plea- sure of meeting a glass of Blue Ribbon.
