PBR wants to make sure you're well-stocked for your next holiday party with its new 99-can case. While definitely not for the solo beer drinker, this case is perfect for a crowd.
PBR's new 99-can case is an extra-long case of beer—approximately the size of a yardstick—filled with 99 cans of booze. Because of its sheer size, carrying the case is definitely a two-person job. Inside each case is three different types of beer so there's a little bit of variety when it comes to drinking. There's Original PBR, a light lager called PBR Easy, and PBR Extra, which contains a higher ABV than the Original.
Each pack is priced at $175, which works out to less than $2 per can.
