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

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

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..

So you are saying that PBR is copying itself?
