Pabst Blue Ribbon apologized for a tweet on Monday that said: “Not drinking this January? Try eating a**!”
The now-deleted post was sent from the brewing company’s verified account.
The vice president of marketing Nick Reely said “We apologize about the language and content of our recent tweets. The tweets in question were written in poor judgment by one of our associates.
“In no way does the content of these tweets reflect the values of Pabst and our associates. We’re handling the matter internally and have removed the tweets from our social platforms.”
