Atlanta’s Moe’s & Joe’s Named the #1 Bar for Pabst Blue Ribbon Sales in the United States

Moe’s & Joe’s, the Virginia-Highlands neighborhood institution for nearly 75 years, has been named the #1 establishment for Pabst Blue Ribbon sales by volume in the United States. In 2020, Moe’s & Joe’s sold the equivalent of nearly 14 kegs a week (or 2 kegs per day) for the entire calendar year. Moe’s & Joe’s is the 2nd oldest continuously active tavern in Atlanta.

“This achievement is yet another indicator of how the Atlanta community has supported Moe’s & Joe’s and our staff—which was never more important than the trying and uncertain year of 2020,” said Scott Drake, managing partner, Moe’s & Joe’s. “To say thank you, we’ve got an entire week of festivities planned for our friends and customers.”

Brothers Moe and Joe Krinsky opened Moe’s & Joe’s in Virginia-Highlands after returning from World War II. Joe bought the Virginia-Highland Delicatessen in 1945 and as soon as Moe was discharged from the Navy, he was recruited as a partner and the iconic name was born. Moe’s and Joe’s has endured through seven decades.

“Moe’s & Joe’s, it’s just synonymous with Virginia-Highland,” says Drake. “It’s the consummate neighborhood bar, like ‘Cheers,’ where everybody knows your name.”
