See this post, from August 19, 2021, for background.
This is so cool!
From that linked site, the largest craft brewery:
- oldest operating brewing company in America
- Biden's backyard: PA, DE
- established in 1829
- largest craft brewery
- sixth/seventh largest overall brewery
- HQ: Pottsville, PA
At the time I posted that, I had never heard of Yuengling. Seriously. At least as far I can remember, I had not heard of Yuengling. Which apparently makes sense: it was only available east of the Mississippi (?).
This morning, when I went to Target to buy orange juice for breakfast, I saw a Yuengling promotion at the store. I did a double-take. I had not recalled ever seeing Yuengling at Target, or anywhere else in this part of Texas. At least as far as I could recall. Having said that, I've never really paid attention. Maybe it's been available in Texas before and I had just not noticed.
Whatever.
Then this, tonight over at social media, link here.
I was curious. Let's google this. And there it is: Yuengling announces, August 23, 2021, just six days ago, that their craft beer will be officially available in Texas as of that date, August 23, 2021.
My go-to beers: IPA, specifically Lagunitas.
My favorite beer if I find it in a bottle: Bitburg Pils.
For special occasions: Guinness stout.
Time to try a lager. Yuengling.
"It was a dark and stormy night".... Time for a Deschutes Black Butte Porter or better yet... an Obsidian Stout! Prost!
ReplyDeleteI'll watch for those in our local store ... they have a huge, huge selection.
DeleteBut, for a once-in-a-year special, take a walk on the wild side with this one.... But only at home! Don't even think about driving after a snifter of this fine concoction. "https://www.deschutesbrewery.com/beer/the-abyss/"
