I had a few friends at college that worked summers at Yuengling. Seemed like a great place, with everyone all the way to the top on a first name basis.
Being about midway between Pottsville and Latrobe, well, that was about heaven for domestic beer. Yuengling was $4.80 for a case of pints back then. An occasional case of Lord Chesterfield and I recall they ran a porter. Alas, neither every made it west of the Rockies in good condition. Both (shed a tear for "33") far superior to the revolting Curs.
My lips will never tough Rock again. However, the old Latrobe Brewery is up and going again. City Brewing bought it, and it just recently started making Sam Adams beers there. Alas, the union still is strong there, but I will pick up an occasional Sam Adams in addition to Yuengling.
