ITEM 1.   SECURITY AND ISSUER:

     This Amendment No. 10 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 10") should be read
in conjunction with the Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") dated December 20,
1996, Amendment No. 1 dated December 20, 1996, Amendment No. 2 dated December
20, 1996, Amendment No. 3 dated February 6, 1997, Amendment No. 4 dated April
16, 1997, Amendment No. 5 dated November 21, 1997, Amendment No. 6 dated
December 18, 1997, Amendment No. 7 dated April 22, 1998, Amendment No. 8 dated
June 5, 1998 and Amendment No. 9 dated June 18, 1998 (collectively, the
"Amendment Nos. 1-9") each as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
by DDJ Capital Management, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company
("DDJ"), and certain affiliates.  This Amendment No. 10 amends the Schedule 13D,
Amendment Nos. 1-9 only with respect to those items listed below.  All
capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed
thereto on the Schedule 13D, Amendment Nos. 1-9.

     The filing of this Amendment No. 10 is not, and should not be deemed to be,
an admission that the Schedule 13D or any Amendment thereto is required to be
filed.

     This Amendment No. 10 relates to shares of common stock, no par value per
share ("Shares") of Pete's Brewing Company (the "Company").  The principal
executive offices of the Company are located at 514 High Street, Palo Alto,
California  94301.

     On July 21, 1998, the shareholders of the Company approved the merger of
PBC Acquisition Corp. with and into the Company.  Pursuant to such merger, each
Share was automatically converted into the right to receive $6.375 and the
Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBC Holdings, Inc.  Therefore, as a
result of this transaction, DDJ and the DDJ Affiliates no longer hold any
Shares.


ITEM 3.   SOURCES AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION:

          Item 3 is deleted in its entirety and amended as follows:

     As a result of the transaction noted in Item 1 above, the Funds were
entitled to receive $7,159,571.25 for the 1,123,070 Shares owned prior to the
merger.

     Other than as reported in this Schedule 13d, Amendment Nos. 8 and 9, there
have been no other transactions during the last sixty days.

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF ISSUER:
