You're thinking of "Yanjing Beer".
(I know -- you were just "funning around". So am I!) :-)

Yuengling — America’s oldest brewery — ain’t sitting idly by as Bud Light sinks like a brick. In fact, it appears the iconic beer wants a little of that $5 billion action that Anheuser-Busch lost this week.
In perfect passive aggressive fashion for 2023, Yuengling’s official twitter account was ready to pounce like a pack of wild wolves Friday afternoon.
Shortly after AB released an official statement in the wake of the Dylan Mulvaney fallout, Yuengling fired off its first tweet in a week with a simple message: we make good beer!
Yuengling vs. Bud Light. Who ya got?
Could it have been coincidence? Sure, if your head’s in the sand. For us conspiracy theorists in the #content game, this was the first shot fired in what appears to be a brewing Beer War.
A quick glance at the comments under both tweets shows the folks over at Yuengling have taken an early 1-0 lead, too.
Well, scratch that — make it 10-0, because Bud Light fired off its first tweet minutes before Yuengling dusted off the keyboard, and … it didn’t go well.
Whoooooof.
Don’t get it twisted — the folks over at Yuengling and Miller are throwing parades right now as Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch burn to the ground, little by little.
In case you missed it, the early returns ain’t great. Stock reports from earlier in the week show AB’s lost a cool $5 billion in value since crap hit the fan a few weeks ago, and the story certainly doesn’t appear to be fading away.
In fact, one beer expert (which sounds like an awesome job) sounded major alarm bells earlier this week when he said this Bud Light protest may indeed have legs.

I want to carry Yuengling in my bar/restaurant/liquor store, who should I contact?

If your establishment is located in one of the states, you can reach out to your local distributor for ordering.
I will have to try their Porter and Black and Tan. I was surprised I liked their light beer when it was the only thing for a $1 tip if you didn’t have a premium card in a PA casino.
“He declined because it wasn’t union brewed.”
What a prick.

I shop at one of the locations in Indianapolis every couple of months. It’s the cheapest place for liquor, beer, and wine that I can find. They act as the wholesaler, the distributor, and the retailer, all rolled into one. Certain states like Ohio don’t approve of this, so they can’t operate there.
I hope this was sarcasm, because Yuengling isn’t Chinese. It’s American through and through.
Yeah, AB tried to sue them for trademark infringement but the European courts basically laughed at them, because “Budweiser” has been a European product for centuries before AB even existed.
I have always thought Corona had a dead skunk taste.
Yes, I was just funning around.

Unbelievable!! And AB stole the recipe! What gall!! No wonder AB went queer beer!!
Yuengling is German, not Chinese.
Agree!
Oldest brewery in America! Well worth visiting in Pottsville, PA.
Thank you! I’m retired, too. I spend my time here on FR, watching the news, reading, going on nature walks, bird watching.
My biggest frustration, however, is the lack of dark skies in my area as I love astronomy, and in recent years I haven’t been as active as I used to be.
We are always at the mercy of the weather.
All my best to you!

“Don’t have to remove your ding a ling to drink a Yueng a ling.”
How profound!
How do you pronounce it?
