Great news for Ohio residents. Too bad about the brewery in TN falling through or the Texas and Chicago markets could have been served.

Dick Yuengling is sooooo smart. He does things on his timetable and everything he touches turns to gold.

I've tried their beer and the best thing I can say about it is that it's cheap compared to most imports.

Good beer! I order one whenever I can’t find Shiner Bock.

They used to cover a huge multi-state area a couple years back. The stuff was so popular, they couldn’t meet demand and they pulled back. I don’t have any doubt they will do well wherever they go, as long as they can make enough.

I had heard they were going to start selling in Texas soo. I guess not anymore? Too bad, I like the beer.

Have you seen the video ‘Beer Wars’? He’s in that and it really explains a lot.

Great News from an Ohioan. My in-laws live 5 miles from Penna border and they buy up about 5 cases per month and distribute them among family, including me!

Anything that sounds like a far eastern coin exchange hasn’t ever rousted my peton.

It isn’t American ....It isn’t...whatever....It is a Iron City type Euro something that appeals to those that haven’t traveled beyond Bayone NJ......

Pottsville beer-maker D.G. Yuengling and Son, America's oldest brewery...

Technically Yuengling is the United States' oldest brewery (1829). Molson Canada is America's oldest brewery (1786).

Always order Yuengling when I’m out. Fine tasting beer and it’s from my state. So, win/win. But I buy it in West Virginia because it’s cheaper and I don’t have to go to a distributor to get it.

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

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!

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.
