Pabst Blue Ribbon Giant Squid Mural

by Scott Beale on July 17, 2009 · 7 comments

San Francisco Citizen has photos of the bizarre Pabst Blue Ribbon mural featuring a giant squid located on corner 7th and Stephenson in San Francisco. The mural “I Am Pabst” was created by Jacob White of Los Gatos, CA and is part of the 2009 PBR Art Contest. Special thanks to our friend Dylan who originally brought this to our attention.

I could never get the Pabst thing except it being in, Blue Velvet.
I guess its a” Hipster thing”
My crew as well as most of Oakland was into Olde English 800 or The Bull.
Ah well, times change..

I’ve seen this on 1st street in downtown Portland as well. I love it. Happy to know there’s one hanging around SF.

well, im in a band that has a sea song called starboard cork with an octopus as a main character. we also have a song called the pbr song, a true story … and the guy in this painting looks like deivis, one of our lead singers, guitarist, cuatro player and writer of starboard cork … so the artist obviously channeled our band energy or vice versa or both .. this will be our next flyer … i love it … ck out those songs at http://www.myspace.com/theribbonboys
