Found this:
"At the Raleigh Times bar in downtown Raleigh yesterday, Mr Obama arrived in the late afternoon with his wife Michelle only to find himself momentarily beerless.
"Where's my beer?" he asked, loud enough for the reporters to hear.
He eyed an array of fine micro brews on tap, from the amber Maharaja IPA to the "naturally cloudy" Blanche Bruxelles. He zeroed in on the mass market.
"PBR," he said, choosing Pabst Blue Ribbon, an inexpensive lager, before working the crowd.
Last week the 46-year-old senator visited a Veterans For America clubhouse, and ordered a Budweiser, while in Pennsylvania, where his campaign beer-drinking began, he found himself drinking Yuengling, a popular local brew, but had to double-check the name of the beer, anxious that “it’s not some designer beer or something”."
