Is it worse than all the mass produced light beers? I’ll probably try it once and that’ll be it because I’m not really a light beer person.

I don't know... I seriously would rather drink Keystone or Natty Light. It tastes like cooled down hot dog water.
how big is your dong man
I would think the venn diagram of IPA drinkers and this beer would look like this:

Yuengling made its way to Illinois this month. Seems right up there with all the other, “Should have kept it exclusive” beers. I’m not saying it’s bad, but man is it over-hyped.
I think it depends what you're comparing it to.
If you're expecting it to be the best craft beer you've ever had, you're going to be sorely disappointed.
Yuengling's market was always being a fairly inexpensive beer and better than its competition in that price range.
fwiw, I am convinced that Keystone Light and Coors Light are the same beer. Identical ABV, calories, carbs, protein and color. From a beer brewing standpoint, it is difficult for all those parameters to be the same if you are following a different recipe. The grain bill, original gravity, and yeast strain need to match.
If you don't believe me, buy a case of Keystone from a place that sells a lot of it, like mills fleet farm, and buy a case of Coors Light and do your own taste test. I challenged my Coors Light drinking hockey teammates to a blind test. One teammate who claimed to hate Keystone and would only drink Coors Light, picked Keystone as the beer he thought was coors.

I think only in kegs. Bottles hit shelves sometime in March is what my understanding is
Yuengling isn’t amazing, it’s just better than the other macro lagers at the same price point
Keystone is just Coors with cheaper ingredients. It IS basically the same exact beer.
Natty Lite is the same thing to Busch Light. I've completely switched to Natty as my go-to light beer because it tastes exactly the same as Busch Light and is noticeably cheaper.
Stumbled across this last night. The bit about swapping out the cans without even stopping the line is telling. Plus the comment about 18 recipes to produce 32 products.

I checked out a new bar this weekend. Work in Progress below the Val-Air Ballroom. They have a $3 rando beer thing and I got the garage beer. Typical cheap beer. I don't notice a big difference between any of the cheap beers so I like to try something new each time. Last time it was Blatz. The only beer I remember being complete garbage and undrinkable was the Hy-Vee beer and that was probably 15+ years ago. I think it was called Regal.
