Yuengling expanding distribution

Hopefully as time goes on it is sold in cases here. Only 6 and 12ers today at Hyvee.

Other states definitely have cases.
 
I’ve honestly never had one. What makes it stand out?
Wasn't sold here... ;)

I liken it to Spotted Cow or Michelob Golden Light for those old enough to remember. Can't get it and everyone talks about it, so FOMO sets in.

It's not bad for a mass produced American Lager. I bought some today.

Busch produced a Copper Lager 15 years ago or so. If you had that you had a Yuengling. For the record Spotted Cow has always been overrated.

Gotcha basically for the look at me I’m drinking a Yuengling crowd. Definitely gonna pass.

If you're into craft brew and don't like mass produced, it's a pass.

If you were hunting for Ames Lager when it came out because it helped We Will and you thought it tasted pretty good, at least try it.

I was just out east and saw cases in Ohio for $24. $1 a beer isn’t bad.
No, that's a fair price. HyVee last night was $9.99 6-pack lager, $7,99 6-pack lager light, $10.99 6-pack Flight, $13.99 12-pack lager, $14.99 12-pack flight. Those prices are a tad high and they had signage saying that it was a "hot intro price!!!"

I'm glad it's finally coming here because I think it's the best tasting cheap beer you can get. I like a good IPA and all but those get kind of expensive. I don't know how you beat Yuengling for $1 a can. It's way better than Busch or a Silver Bullet in my opinion.
 
Honestly, I think there is a good portion of people who have liked it while traveling, and that is why it has a following here more than any marketing campaigns.

I’ll also counter the “there is always a good craft brew” crowd with its hard to find a good lager style.

The novelty of it will fall off, but I’m going to enjoy it because why not.

To counter my marketing statement, I can’t believe it was the official beer of the Cubs last year. That was odd :jimlad:

Yuengling is a cheap beer that tastes better than other cheap beers.

That's all it is. That's the point of it. That's while I'll buy it over Busch Light.
Funny that Yuengling has a light beer and also Flight. I prefer Flight over any light beer and even Yuengling.

Yeah...I was told by a guy who works for a distributor that Yuengling sells great when it enters new markets...for the first six weeks and then people revert back to their usual preferences when the newness wears off and sales drop quite a bit. He wasn't judging it...just using marketing info.

Last year it expanded into Illinois. They marketed it a lot everywhere around here. So, it’s not that surprising they threw some money at the Cubs to try and get the name out there to try and push it against the big brands.
