Yuengling has to be in my top 5 domestic beers that I have tried. It just tastes good.

OK, I don't know if this belongs in the "Outstanding" catagory or not, as I've never tried it, but the name is certainly outstanding:

No... but i'd love to give it a tip

Right now I'm pounding a few Yuengling Light Lagers, but I prefer the real deal. I've been a steady BEER man since i was like 18 or so, never cared for liquor or mixed drinks... just beer. I prefer REAL beers. Not this new microbrewery taste of the day crap either. I live in N.E Pa and Yuengling is from here. Funny thing is, I never tried it until about ten years ago. Since first taste i was hooked. Went through a Michelob phase for quite awhile, but it's been nothing but Yuengling for a decade now. Good stuff. Must grab another. Bye.

Yeah Yuengling is some good stuff. I tried many many beers from around the world, I think Yuengling is the real deal as far as taste goes. It has a funny name but it sure is some good beer lol.

 

I'm drinking a "Traditional Lager" from Yuengling right now, been up all night and when I read your post I figured I would drink a couple and hit the sack. I drink 5-6 times a year tops, your post made me crack one open, I had 2 left from the 6er I bought while driving through PA about a month ago. Theres something about Ameber beer that makes me go MMMMM.

I am Canadian and I know beer. I have tried probably 60 different beers in my life. Many fellow Canadians will disagree with what I'm about to say as far as the best beer, but like I said I know beer.

 

Number one beer ever American Budweiser!!!!! (Canadian Bud doesn't even come close)

followed very closely by Coors (plain regular Coors in the gold can).

 

As well pretty much all other American beer are

 

Sure there are fancy beers, and darks, and ambers, and strongs, and yada yada....... Beer is not supposed to be an aquired taste. It's just good and loved by the masses.

Oh Modest One, I too was once a swiller of the fizzy yellow concoction that many call "beer." That is, until a friend of mine convinced me to try a nice English stout. As I recall, my reaction was, "Now that's a beer!" Haven't been a drinker of the yellow stuff since.

 

A Double Stout sounds good right about now. Think I'll have one.

 

(Oh, and don't drink it ice cold. Around 55 degrees +/- is just right )

Hell, in college, I used to drink Olympia beer, because it was the cheapest thing available. You could get a 12 pack for about 4 bucks.

Rule of thumb for this thread: With the exception of Sam Adams, any American or Canadian beers that run massive ad campaigns on TV or radio are NOT ALLOWED TO BE DISCUSSED IN HERE. By all means start a seperate thread about those mass-produced, fizzy piss-yellow watered-down cans of crap that have the balls to say "beer" on their labels. If it claims to be "ice brewed, cold-filtered, Beechwood aged, fire brewed, union made, shipped cold," or some other lame description of the beer's so-called brewing process designed to hide the fact that it's made with shitty, cheap ingredients...well, grab a big paper cup talk about it over there...there's a half-keg of Coors Light waiting for you. Go ahead -- load up! It'll take you eight cups of that yellow, watery swill (and five trips to the bathroom) to get you buzzed. And you'd better drink it fast...'cause when that shit warms up, you'll be making that EWWWWWWW face because the cheap adjunct grains they used to <ahem> "craft" that garbage will turn that "Rocky Mountain fresh" beer into sewer-rancid bile. Us beer snobs will be in here, enjoying a tasty stout or a lovely pale ale or a sharp-tasting IPA out of a glass, and we'll be feeling nice after just two pints. We drink the expensive stuff because it TASTES REALLY FRIGGIN' GOOD. And we're PROUD that it costs over $7.99 a six, dammit! If you buy beer simply to get drunk or because it costs $2.99 a six pack, LEAVE NOW.

 

Again, if you want to start a thread for waxing poetic about Molson Dry Golden Ice or Michelob Low-Carb Ultra, go right ahead...trust us, we'll leave you alone.

"Fraoch Heather Ale", which I just tried my first bottle of today, and will definitely try again in the future to follow up on how it seemed in this one bottle, when I get a chance to obtain more of it.

Tried some more Fraoch Heather Ale earlier tonight.

 

And as I thought the first time, damned friggin good, though the taste proably isn't for everyone. Highly unusual for a beer. But, imo, it rocks. Damned good.

Hey Doc, what are the heavily-hyped beers over there in England? What are your Budweisers or Molsons...beers that put more money into their ad campaigns than the beers themselves?
