Yuenling is a great beer, but we cannot get it here. Even BevMo, the Mecca of beer snobs, cannot get it.

Why?

Amazon.com ?
 
And let's not forget this one. Still brings a tear to my eye.

AB InBev - converting your micro breweries into [censored] since 1876.

Saw a joke(maybe not a joke?). Why does Budweiser always have Clydesdales in their commercials?


Clydesdales are very majestic animals.

Not quite. They want you to see where the beer comes from.

Wow you're naive. Natural IS Bud. Did you not realize what you said? "I like my beer cheap and cold!" Notice how flavor didn't find it's way into that statement.

And everyone is a hippie or beer snob just because they drink craft beer? Sounds like another victim...


No, Natural Light is made by the same company they're two different beers though. Not everyone is a hippie or beer snob that drinks craft beers but that's the crowd that hangs out at our local micro brewery. So I could go there and pay $6 a glass for beer I don't really care for and be around people I don't fit in with. Or I could pay $14 for a 30 pack of Natural Light and drink it with my friends at a bon fire party. I choose option two.
Saving money and being around people I like makes me naive, huh? Sounds like you need to realize not everyone in the world agrees with you. I know that's going to be shocking but it is true. You can't go getting hurt feelings every time it happens.

Yeah, I know the difference. Both are tasteless [censored] made by AB. Maybe the town you live in has a hippie infestation, or you have a hippie phobia.

I have only visited two breweries. Ever. Rarely do I go to bars. But I never drink tasteless beer. Your defense is price, fine. Mine is too. $12 for 12 good brews. I enjoy around a similar "bonfire" and still party with friends while still not paying $6 a glass at a bar. I consider the extra cost weaponry for independent breweries. Weapons to slay AB-Inbev.

As for my feelings, they are only hurt by our country's distribution laws (funded in large part by AB). When the brews I enjoy are required to rely on either AB or Miller/Coors to make it to ANY bar or store, that is a problem to me. And guess what? AB gives the middle finger to EVERYONE. Only AB branded/affiliated beer rides on their trucks. How is this fair?

Take groceries for example. Let's say AB was one of two suppliers of ALL groceries. But they ONLY distribute rice. They claim anyone who eats anything but rice 24/7 is a snob. And their sole purpose is to destroy every type of food except rice. You eat an apple. Snob. You eat a hot pocket. Snob. You eat a steak. Hippie!

Would that not aggravate you?

Budweiser actually owns a bunch of Clydesdales. They have a stable at the brewery in St Louis.


Are you sure the horses are not kept in the brewery?

I realize you're joking, but I'll answer the question anyway: Like I said, I toured the brewery two years ago. The stables were definitely outside the brewery.

I need to try some of that!

I see it all the time in stores but I never buy it for some reason. Middle Ages brewery is right in the city and they have some good products. Syracuse Pale Ale is great!

It's strong! If you want to try them, Wegmans has the best prices. I like all of Ommegang's brews, so I usually get a few of each.


Strong as in alcohol percentage or flavor?

We had some of this sent to us as a gift from a vendor - its 10% ABV ... I did enjoy it!
 
I like Bud its a good camping beer, and its a challenge to get drunk off them.

Craft beers are good but sometimes they get to heavy and/or you just want a beer.

Since we can now get it in CT I have been drinking a lot of Yuengling.

I realize you are being serious, but I'll ask anyway: Are the horses kept near the filling plant then?

I will be drinking a Bud either on the way to or in my home.

I like Bud Ice.

The Jack Daniels I bought was wicked strong. I tried to like it. It was hard to. Maybe Bud is better.
