Nope, Yuengling is a brewed beer out of Pottsville, PA.
Here's a link to the brewery: http://www.yuengling.com/

Domestically--I'm a big fan of Yuengling and Rolling Rock (I guess its from me being a PA girl)
Imports-Bass Ale, Guiness, and Coronas.

Recommendation: Get a black and tan (Guinness and Bass or Guinness and Harp). They are very good, and in a yard or half-yard glass they are an impressive sight

I usually have a half-yard black and tan on the (rare ) occasion that I find myself in Boston.

I recently have come to like much darker beer, whereas I once turned in disgust...the evolution of a beer-drinker, I presume..not that I very frequently drink much these days...but Sam Smith Oatmeal Stout is brilliant, and I also had a Texas beer that may or may not have been mentioned by the 4 million Texans on here but it was called Old Bastard Ale, I think...and it was great as well. The story was funny too.




edited to add:

Has anyone ever tried Sol Beer? If you've ever seen Mexican Soccer, it's one of the big sponsors...it is the absolute worst beer every created. I think someone was trying to prove beer could taste worse than Corona does, and that person created Sol Beer. TERRIBLE!

Yuengling actually brews a black and tan

Oh, I am so boring - Coors Light.

I like Zima. I remember when it first came out, but wasn't available yet in Texas. The former Mr. tinydancer had made his annual pilgimage to the temple at Golden, CO, and bought some Zima back. A bunch of us were sitting around playing cards and drinking this Zima stuff. I thought "That was pretty good - I believe I'll have another!" After saying that several times, I stood up and fell flat on my ass. I just sat there on the floor and thought "WHAAAAT???" Really crept up on me!!!

I haven't seen that, but Saranac also has a very good black and tan. Still, nowhere near as visually impressive as a properly made black and tan with Guinness and either Bass or Harp.

mu_agd, I'll let you know next time I'm in Boston.

I also Like Strongbow hard Cider (tastes like beer) but I can't find it here.

I've had about every Samuel Smith beer and everyone of them has given me a stomachache.

Talking

Well, the disguinshed list is long but hell when you are a Pro.

Coors Light, Golf Course. Oh, but of Course when it comes out of the corkscrew in the Filtration Room at the exact Temp. and the tax is not paid on it yet!

Mickeys Big Mouth, before they changed it, Like Dads home made Brew!!

Boulevard Honey Wheat Ale, Kansas Brewed!!!!!

Watneys, best Lager I found in England.

St. Pauli Girl, Becks, Heinekin, Hof Brau , but these beers must be consumed in Europa!

Sopporo, Asian aint half bad either.

A good malty beer is smoooth!!!!!



Hate:

Bitter hoppy beer, and beer that taste better with a damn lemon/lime wedge squeezed into it! The Mexicans dont drink that crap. They drink Texate and Dudwiper! T Good Dud, Well so-so what?
