Mine too!

My favotites are Lager and the Porter.

Wish they sold it in Ky.

I have a stash in the basement hidden behind the coal pile. Unfortunatly it seems to be evaporating. :cheers:

In the interest of furthering our understanding of the importance & complex role that beer has played in our history, I submit the following (short) video:

That is tasty beer and its a decent price too.

I've been keeping it on the cheap lately and consuming Miller High Life in cans...Mostly for shits and giggles.

My favorite though is Stone Ruination IPA. If you like IPA's then you would enjoy this brew. http://www.stonebrew.com/ruin/

Hey, J.C., does this mean I'm not the only one for whom Yuengling was rot-gut years ago?? :D

But it's fair to say it's quite a bit better now. No?

Yuengling is good beer. Not great. just good. The krauts make the best beer in my opinion.

Saranac has an awesome Caramel Porter - http://www.saranac.com

Harpoon has some good Hefeweizen - http://www.harpoonbrewery.com or http://www.ufohefeweizen.com

Lastly, if you're ever in the Syracuse, NY area try hitting up:
Empire Brewing Company in Armory Square - http://www.empirebrew.com/ontap2.php
Middle Ages Brewing Company - http://www.middleagesbrewing.com

Don't plan on finding a job in Syracuse - we've done a good job of taking advantage of the current "downturn" in the economy so we're shutting all the manufacturing facilities we can and putting our people out on the streets. We can't compete with China in manufacturing anymore, but we sure can make some good beer!

I like the Shipyard WInter Ale made here in Maine. It is a good solid tasting Ale.

Deeelish brew the hop devil is!

Anyone here get a chance to try the Sam Adams IPA a few years back before they discontinued it? That was an exceptional IPA to say the least.

This one here wins in my book for best name and label (it's tasty too) -
