On Thursday, Pabst Brewing Company announced a new contract brewing agreement with Anheuser-Busch InBev, according to a report from Brewbound. Starting in the first quarter of 2025, the San Antonio-based brewery will begin using AB InBev’s several production facilities to contract brew many of its beloved beer brands.
The news arrives just after Pabst’s nearly two-decades-long contract brewing agreement with Molson Coors ended in December 2024. When the contract’s end date was made public in 2019, the Blue Ribbon manufacturer announced that it had sealed a similar arrangement with City Brewing set to continue through 2040 to offset the loss in Molson Coors production. The La Crosse, Wisc.-based company stands as one of the largest contract brewers in the U.S. with facilities in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and California.
