I have chosen to do my research on the history of the Pabst Brewing Company, to see the evolution of this company, and what changes they have made over the years since the very first Brewery in Milwaukee. I will be asking questions such as “Who started this company?” “What kind of products does this company offer?” “Has this brand of beer won any awards?” and questions of that nature.

I believe that the reason is why I am interested in this topic is because I am from Superior WI, and Pabst is a Wisconsin beer. The fact that the first Pabst Brewery was created in Milwaukee was just the icing on the cake. What is the one thing that people think about when they hear Wisconsin? If the first response isn’t cheese, than it would be beer. Wisconsin is well known for their beer and cheese. That being said, beer would be a great topic to take on. Another aspect of my interests in this topic is that I am a college student and I have seen my fair share of Pabst throughout my college experience. My family loves to drink including the occasional Pabst, which makes it fitting for me to talk about this subject. Though my family and I have drank Pabst, I haven’t really ever bothered to find out the history of it, and with this research project, will actually find out about the history of a beer that has been around me for so long.
