Yuengling expanding distribution

Don't understand the hype. It's such a mid beer IMO. It's fine, but it's not the holy grail some people make it out to be.
People always want what they can’t easily access.
I don't get the hype of modelo at all. It's like a skunked corona.
It's great on the scale of cheap domestics.
Sure, there are better craft beers, but that's not who this beer competes with. I'll take a yuengling over a bud or busch any day.
Its Busch Light priced that actually has flavor and is still family owned.
This. Plus, Their light version, Flight, is miles better than the other domestic lights.
Explain what you mean by "skunked". Modelo uses hop stabilization whereas I don't believe Corona does. Skunking comes from free radicals unstabilized isomerized alpha acids.
It's what you're comparing it to.
It's very average beer, but it's priced the same as ****** beer. So for the $, it's pretty fantastic. It's Busch Light cost with much more flavor, and it's owned by the same American family, not some constantly shifting faceless corporation headquartered god knows where.
For the money it's hard to find something better. That's not to say that there isn't much better beer out there because there is. It's basically the same price as Busch lattes are but a whole lot better. If it was another Bud Light/Busch Light/Miller Lite then I wouldn't care in the least.
I'm not a beer expert by any means but I switched to Yuengling Flight or Light after the Busch Light melt down. Everybody has different tastes but it hits the spot for me. I live 10 miles from Missouri so I have easy access and yes the IA redemption stamp is on the cans and I confirmed that our local redemption center takes the cans now. Even before they've sold it in Iowa.
If I'm going this route, I'm going to have a Montucky Cold Snack.
This for sure. I have a case of Flight in the fridge yet, Just finished a 12 pack I had. I haven't had a Bud Light in years and Flight has more taste than Busch Lite.
