It was our unit beer at the Gap (late 70s, FIGMR, E CO 28th AVN BN). Was also the cheapest, even cheaper than Schmidts.

"I agree when I lived in NY and PA I tried one but did not think much of it so it comign to Ohio means zero to me other than it will make my brand or someone else’s have less space in the cooler."

Unlike other brands, drinking Yuengling does not degrade one's spelling abilities.

I have 2 cases in the downstairs fridge. Just in case.

That gave me an outburst of laughter. Thanks.

My SIL is originally from Philly.

He gets the stuff and brings it here to Indiana.

Reminds me of myself bootlegging Coors from Phoenix to Cleveland back in the early 70s.

I hadn’t heard that the Memphis brewery fell through. Too bad. They’d be better off in Eastern Tennessee anyway. We have better water!

I love Yuengling beer. Best local/mass produced beer I’ve ever had. I used to live in Indiana and got “hooked” on Fat Tire beer when I visited the west coast. But they didn’t distribute past Denver. So I’d bring home a case every time I visited. One of the drug reps that came to my office had family in the west and would bring me a 12 pack each time he came home. Minus a couple bottles for himself. I rarely drink beer nowadays, but when I do it’s usually Stella Artois. But it’s available everywhere.

Ohio, especially in the Cincinnati area, used to have some great local breweries.
Hudepohl
Burger
Schoenling
Weideman

See the Germanic heritage there?
Brewed local and fresh fresh fresh....Great beer.

I have no problem spelling incase you did not notice those are called typos made mostly by people who don’t type very well.Still doesn’t change the taste of the rot gut though we alawys considered Yuengling cheap beer for drunks.

“....it’s cheap compared to most imports.

Except its not an import. Brewed and bottled in PA.

I realize that but around here it competes with the imports, not the local brews.

And it is a fine beer IMHO

At its price point, where I live, I can get Fosters for a dollar less per 12-pack. Tastes better and costs less. If I want a PA beer I prefer PBR, which also costs less. It's better than Bud or Miller but that stuff is rotgut. So the bottom line is the only time I buy it is when I have to choose between it or an import like Heineken or Becks, or an expensive American beer like Sam Adams. They taste far better but they make my wallet ache.
