Yuengling is the best tasting Macro Brewed beer.

[Gooberlx2]

I think Yuengling is pretty comparable to Fat Tire. They're both good.

 

[xanis]

Yuengling that good? The first time I ever heard about it I thought it was a chinese beer I live in Philly so I have access... maybe I'll try it sometime.

You live in Philly and you've never had Yuengling? D: HEATHEN!

But yeah, Yuengling is definitely the best bang for the buck.

Fat Tire is A: not as Macro as Yuengling
B: So outrageously heavy it isnt funny.

 

[Demo24]

How Macro is it? Never seen it at any bars or liquor stores or markets any where here in Cali.

It pretty much makes it from NY down to Florida on the east coast, but only a few states in off the coast. Kind of limited in that aspect, which is a shame. I'm just happy it's finally showing up here in GA. Sells for a nice price and tastes pretty good too!

Yeah, I really haven't seen it anywhere off of the east coast, which is unfortunate.

It isnt even in the state of OHIO, aka NEXT DOOR TO PA...

What does it take to be Macro? New Belgium is distributed by Coors and available in a fair number of states....more than Yuengling I think.

I guess I don't find it that heavy. But then, since I can't get Yuengling out here, my memory of it could just be fuzzy.

Yuengling is perhaps as heavy as bud, i dont find it near as heavy however...

 

[zinfamous]

I can't imagine comparing Fat Tire to Yeungling, yet alone any other New Belgium style...

Yeungling makes a "dark," Lager, and now "light?" iirc?

 

[SunSamurai]

The only good beer Ive ever had was from a local brewer. Something like 28proof. You couldent taste the alcohal at all. If this stuff is anything like that Ill have to find some.

 

[Poulsonator]

I agree with this thread 100%

Indeed. I'm not much of a drinker anymore, but we've had access to it for some time. I'm actually kind of burnt out on it, we've had it for so long.

I guess my memory is off then. It's been several years since I've been able to drink on the East Coast.

 

[mb]

They seem to only sell the Lager and Black & Tan around here. How are the rest?
Premium, Porter, and Chesterfield Ale?

The porter sounds mmm mmm good. I love dark beers.

Never had them, the Lager is king however.

 

[Ika]

you deserve no such beer, you heathen!

psh, a Native having never heard of what is most surely nectar brewed by FSM himself?! Away with you

I've only been in Philly for two and a half years... mostly raised in Ohio/Cleveland. Not to mention I'm not 21 yet I've never really been a fan of beer. I've tried to develop the taste for it but it's not really working out for me.

 

[destrekor]

No they dont, they have 60 and 90... Ohio does not allow beers with ABV of over 15% iirc... hence 120 is not legal...

have not had the theobroma, do need to find it though... shall check at The Andersons...

ygpm fyi

I could have sworn I saw the 120min at Andersons in Toledo. And I thought I saw it at a local import store here in Columbus. Might have seen the 90 and just thought I saw the 120. I know it was a 4pk, but I think the 90min is a 4pk as well.

And these laws of legal limits for a beer's ABV is just ridiculous. So what if the percentage approaches weak liqueurs, that makes it dangerous or something? What about 40% ABV products? ridiculous.

woah, totally just went on a wiki adventure. That was wild.

if you are talking about the one w/ tony pakos in it, on the corner of the two streets i cant remember... no it does not, 60 and 90 yes... 120 no... never have seen 120 other than in Indiana... that Andersons has one hell of a selection however.

They look very similar in the boxes. However, IMO 90 minute is heavenly and 120 minute is way overdone.

Yeah that's one, on the corner of Monroe and Talmadge, near the Olive Garden.

Just discovered this place and their insane selection.
Right down Talmadge too, by the IHOP, is Joe's Beverage Center, and they have a massive beer collection too. Pretty similar collections I might say, I think Joe's might have more foreign beers but Anderson's might win with more locals.

My dad took me there recently and I was like a kid in a candy store.
I'm going to have to make a trip to the one here in Columbus one of these days to see if their selection is comparable.

Joes definately has a better selection of Liquor and Beer, Andersons wins out in Wine however... i always find it difficult to discover new wine as its not always arranged easily...

 

[CRXican]

don't think I've had it

 

[SoulAssassin]

Yuengling and Dogfish Head breweries are both about 90 minutes from me (in opposite directions) so both are readily available. I got someone from SC to bring me a case of Fat Tire for Xmas so I have all 3. I do believe that means I win this thread.

 

[lxskllr]

I think Sam Adams makes a better beer. If by "macro" you mean priced with the big 3, then I'd agree.

I've been here about the same amount of time. I'm not condoning breaking the law, but I can assure you that there are numerous places in this city where you'll be 21 . Also, you just haven't had the right beer yet I'm sure.

lol, no. Yeungling is nothing like that.
