Last year, [Pabst](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pabst-the-place) Blue Ribbon debuted a low-calorie lager called PBR Easy and it is now following up this release with two all-new Pabst Blue Ribbon beer products that sit on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to alcohol content. The two new lagers include PBR Non-Alcoholic and PBR Extra, which takes the form of a beer that comes in at 6.5% [ABV](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tepache-hiball), which is slightly more than regular PBR at 4.7% ABV.

While PBR Non-Alcoholic is being introduced as an easy drinking option for the daytime, PBR Extra offers a strong yet light and crisp option for those who are looking for an alternative to heavy drinking beers. With many consumers seeking out [no- or low-alcohol products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craftstyle-nonalcoholic-beers), as well as higher ABV options for certain occasions, these new products help to suit a range of needs.
