Who wants a Yuengling????

[BeachBaby]

I just got home with a case of the liquid gold! Woot! :woohoo:

[KamaAina]

1. Beer me!

And be sure NOT to give any to anyone who doesn't rhyme it with "Ringling"! :P

[BeachBaby]

4. You got it!

And, yeah - I want to strangle people who can't even say it correctly. :P

[Dulcinea]

80. Sure!

I'm from western PA originally...just finally got it here in GA.

My GA-native bud asked me, "Have you tried this beer?" I just laughed.

[NightWatcher]

2. Yum, I love the stuff, but I've been spoiled tonight on local brew pub

I was introduced to Yuengling when I was in training for a job up near Butler, PA (three guesses for whom). Several years later I found it in Florida and then a few months ago a local distributor started carrying it here in Georgia. Yummers

[BeachBaby]

7. Best beer EVAH.

What's your local brew?

[NightWatcher]

10. Moon River Brewing Company

I had 5 large Swamp Fox IPA's with 7% abv. If you are ever in Savannah, let me know and I'll treat you to a brew.

That's a standing offer to any DU'er

[BeachBaby]

62. Oh, yes! I saw a pic of the place in your thread.

If I get down that way - which I hope to do, Savannah is absolutely gorgeous - I will most certainly take you up on that offer. :) :hi:

[KayLaw]

3. Me!

I do. My husband taught me to love Yuengling and I would give my worldly belongings to have one right now. Yum, yum.

[BeachBaby]

9. LOL.

I got one of our other DUers hooked on the stuff. He's wondering how I can ship it to Minneapolis. :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

5. I'm actually rocking the Corona tonight

[BeachBaby]

6. You and I gotta hang out sometime.

They are my two favorites - although I do Yuengling year-round, with Corona (slice of lime, please) during the summer months. :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

11. They're my favorites, too

I also like Smithwick's (with fresh ground black pepper on top). I call it "The Colonel."

[Tangerine LaBamba]

52. Wanna do something REALLY nice during the summer?

Take 1/2 really cold Yuengling and 1/2 really cold lemonade.

A shandy. And it's so damn good. Slip a slip of lemon on the glass, if you want.

We could sprawl on a front porch with these babies, watch the world go by, and, by sundown, have the whole universe in alphabetical order, don't you think?

[BeachBaby]

63. That sounds POIFECT.

Beer/drinks, great weather, intelligent discussion. Count me in! :hi:

[realisticphish]

8. I do indeed

But my roommates, who are from PA, and live near the freakin brewery, constantly "forget" to bring me any when they come back to Ohio.

[BeachBaby]

16. You need to find new roommates.

;)

[realisticphish]

35. i guess

it helps that they don't drink beer. But JEEZ

If I didn't like their dog, I'd be outta here ;)

[Tangerine LaBamba]

17. I grew up near the brewery ..........

Pottsville is the county seat of Schuylkill County, and my home borough was about six miles away. We used to go there for free beer, which they'd give out after the tour. So what if we were underage? No one cared.

Yuengling is a spectacular beer. It's the water up there. Damn great water, in spite of what all the bootleg miners almost did to the supply. It's crystalline and sweet and that's what makes Yuengling so great.

We grew up on it, and, about twenty years ago, when I was living in San Francisco, I broke up one day when I found Yuengling Black and Tan in the "Gourmet Beer" section of a store. The price was hysterical, as well.

Good stuff, indeed. Best beer made in the US.

[BeachBaby]

19. Hey, you!

:hug:

Good to see one of my alltime favorite posters in my beer thread! :hi:

How are you?

[Tangerine LaBamba]

24. Wherever there's a beer thread,

you'll find a LaBamba leading the charge, empty bottle in hand, looking for more.

You've been around, I've noticed, including seeing you getting screwed out of game tickets by the USPS. That still rankles me.

Things are good. I'm intensely bothered by the idea that the Spaniards probably will not pursue those thugs from Chimpy Fucknut's Torture Team - Yoo, Addington, et al. - but, for the most part, life is fine and all is well.

And you, sweet thing???

[BeachBaby]

31. Ho. Lee. Shit.

For some bizarre reason, I had this visual of you and me - Yuenglings surrounding us - discussing philosophy and solving all the world's problems.

Scarier still, we just may be able to achieve that. ;)

Yeah, I didn't get to go to my game. :( So I bought Yuengling, instead. It turns the frown into a smile, every damned time.

Good to see you. :hug:

[TZ]

23. Here's a suggestion

Threaten them with a butt candle while they sleep if they do not...:rofl:

[realisticphish]

34. they're dating

so, for all I know, they're already big fans of the ol' buttcandle

[bigwillq]

12. I would rather have a Heineken!

:beer:

[BeachBaby]

18. Heineken, Schmeineken.

I guess that German stuff is okay. :P

[bigwillq]

20. Heineken is from Holland.

:beer:

[BeachBaby]

26. Series?

I learn something new every day. Today is no different. :)

[MajorChode]

39. Heineken? Fuck that shit. Pabst Blue Ribbon!!!

[flvegan]

13. Ah yes, one of Tampa's local brews.

:hide:

[BeachBaby]

14. Do you want one or not?

I'm feeling generous tonight - and choosing to ignore your snark.

[flvegan]

15. What, are you gonna fax it to me?

Sure, however it gets here, I'm not one to turn down a drink. Especially not one from a lady.

[BeachBaby]

25. You'll have to accept it through teh interwebs.

If you were in the area, I'd buy you one, and make you watch the Phillies game with me. :rofl:

[TK421]

75. Somebodys gotta have some pity on Tampa n/t

[BeachBaby]

77. :SPRAY:

Check your pm.

[leftyclimber]

21. I'll have one!

It's not available in WV until May. One should tide me over until then.

Just pour some down your modem and...

Thanks!

[BeachBaby]

27. OMG! You made my day!

You actually have it marked on your calendar, as to when it shows up in your area? :rofl:

Here you go, sweetie - cheers! :toast:

[leftyclimber]

30. Beats driving to the next state for it, for sure!

Right now they're guessing Memorial Day weekend. This is big news in West-by-God Virginia. The whole state's abuzz! :rofl:

Until then I am drinking Great Lakes Brewery's Burning River Ale (with an occasional Rogue Mocha Porter for a taste of home).

:toast:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

53. I only shows up at a certain time?

That's a new one on me.

Why the special date?

[leftyclimber]

56. Even though we're "next door"

Yuengling hasn't yet been distributed in WV. Something to do with increasing production or something. They worked out an agreement to distribute in WV starting Real Soon Now (tm) and the state liquor control commission just approved everything the day before yesterday. ETA is late May, probably around Memorial Day weekend.

I can hold out. I'm going to Oregon for a week and will sate myself on microbrews in the meantime. :evilgrin:

[Inchworm]

22. Best beer

= free beer

brang it!

:hi:

:toast:

[BeachBaby]

29. Here ya go, babe.

[Inchworm]

32. Chin chin!

:woohoo:

[Xipe Totec]

28. Not a fan of it

Not a critic either.

It's good.

I just prefer Ommegang, particularly the Abbey Ale

For seasonals, there's noting that beats Ommegang Chocolate Indulgence.

[av8rdave]

33. That's good stuff. I'll have one, as soon as I finish my Long Hammer IPA

[BeachBaby]

65. It's my local brew, and the best in the USA!!!

:toast:

[burning rain]

36. I'm your huckleberry.

I bet I'd even dig their light some, though that's the only one I've never tried.

[TK421]

41. Their light is pretty darned good....their black and tan is pretty awesome, too

thats what I used to drink all the time until I got to the point where it was getting too heavy for me so I switched to the lager ( which, even that is not heavy )

[burning rain]

64. I like the Black and Tan, too...

Their proprietary B & T consists of Porter and Premium (their least-expensive brew). You can make an interesting variant by combining the Porter and the Lager.

[TK421]

37. Beverage of the gods....woman after my own heart

ever have Lord Chesterfield Ale? Me and my friends used to get wasted on the stuff....very good, and cheap, too!!

[BeachBaby]

40. Yo!

The Phils lost - AGAIN. :eyes:

I'm on Yuengling #4 - so I'm feeling pretty good, despite the loss.

And no, I've never tried LCA. I've seen it around, though. I'll have to give it a shot sometime - once I pull myself away from the Yuengling. :P

How are you?

[TK421]

46. Okay...in order

#1-SHOCKER!!!!!!!

#2- I'm on Hoegaarden number nine right now....haven't touched Yuengling tonight....yet

#3- Give Chesterfield Ale a shot...it's pretty good, and as I mentioned cheap ( around here I get a case for about $18.00 ) At that price, you would think you're getting Milwaukees Best. Oh...I haven't seen it in bottles, not to say they don't exist, but I've only seen it in cans. Yes, cans :D

[BeachBaby]

48. My reply....in order

#1 - THE SLUMP HAS TO STOP, RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

#2 - Yuengling #4 has disappeared, and I've just cracked open #5.

#3 - You had me sold, until I saw the word "can". I do bottles - I don't do cans.

Heh. That sounded kinda dirty.

[TK421]

50. My reply to your reply....in order ( damn, this is getting difficult here )

#1-The slump will stop when the Phils get off their candy-asses and play ball-pure and simple. Hey guys, regardless of who it is you play against, do it for Harry!

#2-Congratulations on #5 and bet your looking forward to #6 ( Yuengling has a tendency to do that to you ).

#3- Really, though....you just can't tell it came out of a can if you can get past that...it's really that good! Hey, I might be wrong and maybe they have it in bottles somewhere, but I just haven't seen it. There is this bar about ten minutes away from me in Levittown ( Murphys Irish Pub ) that had it on draft a while back but they took it off because it "wasn't selling"...WELL....I WASN'T THERE TO MAKE THAT DECISION!@!@!!

[MajorChode]

38. That kinda sounds like a sex thing

[BeachBaby]

42. Pev.

[MajorChode]

44. Hey, I just want in before the thread lock

[BarenakedLady]

43. I'd never turn you down.

:D

[BeachBaby]

45. I know you wouldn't!

Here ya go, babe:



:hi: :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

51. Thank you dahhhhlink!

:beer:

[TZ]

47. My Nats are gonna drive me to drink

After leading most of the game a solo hr in the 8 th tied it up and currently they are losing 3-2 in the 10th. :banghead:

[BeachBaby]

49. Believe me - I am feeling your pain.

Phils had it ALL going on - with a 5-1 lead - but blew it. They lost, 8-7. Matt Stairs and Brad Lidge couldn't save them.

[Chan790]

54. I just discovered that I can get it here in NYC...

given they want $10 for a 6-pack but still...it's Yuengling.

[BeachBaby]

66. Wow - kinda pricey.

It's $11.99 for a 12-pack here. A buck per bottle. Can't beat it! :)

[Chan790]

71. It's amazing what 100 miles can do to the price of a regional beer...

Back in Hartford, we have a local beer called Hooker IPA. It's the worst swill imaginable, cheap too. Here it's considered a premium beer and the cost is somewhere around $22 for a 12.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

79. $10.50 for a 12-pack here

:P

[BeachBaby]

81. You're absolutely right.

The local liquor store, up the road, charges $11.99; but if I make the trek to Canal's (discount liquor store chain), the same 12-pack runs cheaper.

Do you have Canal's up your way? They're all over the place here, and I know the owners - they live in South Jersey.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

82. Our discount chain is Bottle King

It's $10.50 at the local place on my way home from work.

The place closest to me it's like $10.99.

[DarkTirade]

55. ... every time I see the word Yuengling I have to post this.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

59. rightclick/save

bwahahahahahahaha! thanks :D

[BeachBaby]

67. And every time you feel so inclined to post this....

I laugh my ass off. Thanks! :hi:

[Norrin Radd]

57. In my dreams. I'm from Erie, but live in Seattle now, where one can't buy

Yuengling.

[HopeHoops]

58. I'll take a tall draft

Shit, make it two - I'll invite my wife.

[Redstone]

60. I do, but they don't sell it here in Connnecticut, goddammit. I have to wait until a

visiting relative from PA hauls a coupla cases up for me.

(And Mrs R can't STAND beer, except she loves Yuengling.)

What a shame that Rolling Rock has become Bud Light in a green botle.

Redstone

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

68. They don't sell it in CT?

Oddly enough, all the dozens of times I've gone to liquor stores up there, I've never noticed that.

[Redstone]

73. Nope. I saw a case at the local liquor store and grabbed it, but the girl at the counter

told me "PUT THAT BACK!" It belonged to the owner who had it smuggled up for him.

Redstone

[BeachBaby]

74. Wow!

People up that way actually have our brew smuggled up to them?

I think I need to move up there, and be a Yuengling distributor. ;)

How you feelin', hon? :hug:

[Redstone]

78. You do that, I'll be your #1 customer. I'm feeling pretty good, thanks for asking.

Redstone

[Beer Snob-50]

61. that is some good stuff. nt

[Initech]

69. My Angels are going to drive me to drink heavily this season.

It'll certainly make the games more entertaining. :banghead: :banghead:

Oh and I'll take one. Yuengling is the shit. :beer:

[KG]

70. if i'm having a beer, it's going to be a Yuengling

:thumbsup:

[Dappleganger]

72. Blech

There's a case in our drink fridge which is over two years old that you can have. That stuff is nasty.

[TK421]

76. Leave beer that long in the fridge it's bound to get nasty...no matter what brand

were you planning on aging the stuff?

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

83. Definitely a couple here!

I spent a few months in Philly back in the earliest part of this decade and developed quite a fondness for that brave and tasty little brew. :9

Feel free to e-mail me a couple Yuenglings and a cheesesteak (wit and Wiz) from Tony Luke Jr's. :)
