40,000 pounds of beer vanishes in US: Company offers reward to solve mystery, internet reacts
Pabst Brewing Company says thieves used false documentation to collect a shipment of 40,000 pounds of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer from a California distribution centre.
A truck carrying 40,000 pounds of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer went missing in California, prompting Pabst Brewing Company to offer a reward to solve the mystery. The shipment, valued at $25,000, was intended for San Diego but was allegedly stolen from an Anheuser-Busch distribution center in Montclair on August 17. Police stated that the thief presented false documentation to collect the beer.
The company's Instagram post announcing the theft read, "STOLEN - 40,000 lbs of beer," and they challenged the thief to return the beer within 18 days and 44 minutes, offering a reward to anyone who could help. The unusual appeal quickly went viral on social media, with users joking about the missing shipment and speculating about who might have stolen it, including Batman.
