Anyone trying the yuengling?

[Pistol boy]

When I was in North Carolina over the winter it was the only beer I drank. I'm so glad it finally made it to Indiana. No more driving to the Ohio state line.

 

[MrsGungho]

had some at my son-in-laws a couple weekends ago. Not to bad.

 

[Expat]

I had some on draft at a restaurant up in Elkhart a week or two ago. It was okay... I wouldn't go out of my way to find it. But would I have it again... maybe depending on what else they had.

 

[Cameramonkey]

Ive been drinking it for 15 years. I'm glad I dont have to only get it on out of state trips and bring cases back.

Its not the best, but I think its the best moderately priced domestic.

My only beef is its about $2-3 higher per 12 than it is in OH. But the convenience factor is there...

 

[lovemachine]

I tried it. There was an after taste, which I didn't care for.

Everyone is all excited about it since it wasn't available and now it is. It's okay, but we drank it in college cuz it was cheap. And if we couldn't get that, we drank Old Style or Busch Lite.

I stick with local brews now for the few occasions I have a beer.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Brother in PA, I have it now and then.

Decent beer. I now pursue the "wine of the country" with Indiana's many new microbreweries.

 

[w_ADAM_d88]

Oh yea, drank it when I lived in VA. Happy its here now!

 

[T.Lex]

Picked up a case this past weekend. Had had it before and I like it.

Its different, but not crazy different.

 

[SMiller]

Living here in Florida it is on tap everywhere you go.

 

[Hop]

I've been drinking it for years but now that I can buy it in IN it doesn't taste the same.

I still like Oculto and Sun King Cream Ale better right now.

 

[yeahbaby]

They just started distributing it in northwest Indiana. I like it, but $21 for a case is pricey.

Glad it's here and no more trips to Ohio. It's one of the few beers that I actually enjoy.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

I tried it. It's good. But I guess my pallette's just not that refined because I didn't see what the excitement was all about.

Anybody else remember when Coors was impossible to get this Far East? One year, we made a trip out to Oklahoma to visit family and my dad bought several cases to take back to Tennessee because it wasn't available there.

 

[Classic]

I like their Black and Tan, nice change of pace.

 

[Cygnus]

They started promoting this out here a few years back. The light has flavor and I agree that the black and tan is good. I view it as a half step up from Bud, Miller or Rolling Rock. The resurrected another brand from Rhode Island called Narragansett. It's a step below those other beers I mentioned but they do a TON of varieties including an Oktoberfest and a shandy.
Back on topic... I'm glad you all have more variety out there. Yuengling is a good change up.

 

[edwea]

I was more excited when we could finally get dogfish head. Their brews are more my taste. Yuengling just seems sort of...meh.

 

[ghuns]

I think, more than any other beer, Yuengling is very different between bottles and cans. My wife won't drink it out of can, bottles she loves it. I personally prefer the cans.

I hope we can get down to Ohio prices once the newness wears off.

 

[Dimitrivich]

It tastes like any generic American Lager. I don't understand what the hub bub is about. I lived in Ohio when they entered that market and everyone freaked out there as well.

 

[avboiler11]

I don't drink many "domestics", but Yuenging is IMO the best of the bunch, and it doesn't command much of a premium over my other preferred domestic, Coors Light.

Tap or glass bottle only, cans are no bueno.

Don't get me started on how Shiner, Fat Tire and Sam Adams are priced as imports...
