As for finding these beers on tap, you must not frequent many KC halls, Legions, VFW's, or Moose Lodges.
Red White and Blue was its own beer made by Pabst. It was a poor man's PBR. don't know if that recipe is still around.
But Popeye - if one was a hipster drinking a beer on tap, how would the other hipsters know he's drinking the right beer?
I practically grew up in a KC hall, but don't frequent now. There -instead of pitchers it came in these glass containers (i believe recycled orange juice jugs). Those guys didn't need for people to see the label.

I think hipsters are at a crossroads regarding beer drinking. In fact, I think the shift towards Busch has already started.
These damn hipsters are stealing all my cheap-beer-of-choices. PBR, Stag, Schlitz, Busch. Frigging hipsters.
hipsters are ruining a lot of things for people.. like the newsie hat.. i've been wearing
one of those since jr. high.. my dad had some.. now i can't wear them in public anymore
Dude, you wear newsie hats, you like obscure foreign cinema, dive bars, you have tattoos and you're not into football... you're a hipster.
who said i'm not into football.. i bet you i can name damn near every starting position player
for every team in the league.. and my old man was a football coach for 35 years.. i really
have no choice..
and edit.. yes i have tattoos... but i don't have any star tattoos..
Ok, not that into football. Aren't you the one who posted something about it not being a big deal to miss the Super Bowl?
I'm just giving you [expletive], but you fit the hipster profile pretty closely.

The very act of being in a KC hall or other such bar now is enough for hipster cred. It is assumed you're not drinking Heineken in there.
I don't even know where there are halls, etc. in St. Louis. In my hometown though, these are pretty much the only options except for the one bar that everyone under 30 goes to. That place is a freaking mess, and I don't like people I knew in high school cornering me for 2 hours, yelling in my ear about the time we played warball in PE. So drinking and playing dice with the older folks is where it's at.

Absolutely. And like any good hipster, they'll never admit to it.
one thing i do have going for me is that i don't give a [expletive] about books or music..
that's something they like right? obscure music and hunter s. thompson and
charles bukowski and [expletive] like that?

the hipsters came to omaha...not the other way around.
...and until most of your description a few pages ago, most of us didn't know we were considered hipsters because this is how we've always been.
