Of course, any loss by unions and/or Dimocraps is unfair... or not so much.

Good for them. Makes me thirsty for a Yuengling.

Yuengling's owner "doesn't care for his workers -- he just cares about how much money he can make," said Mr. Long, who said he would observe the boycott.

Well, DUH!

Look for the anti-union label
whenever you're looking to get soused.
Remember somewhere the union's going,
To make beer more expensive, the louts!
You work hard, but who's complaining?
Thanks to Yuengling, we can say,
That we're looking for the anti-union label
When we go drinking in the U.S.A.!

I sympathize with Mr. Yuengling. It’s not paying Teamsters $20/hour that’s the problem. It’s getting one’s $20/hour Teamsters to show up for work that’s a problem, in my experience.

I’ll be getting a case this weekend. Unions only get their way by force and threats. Just like the government.

My husbands favorite beer! Their quality control has to improve though, he has to sniff each opened beer because he occasionally gets a “skunk”.

Yeungling makes a great beer.... and if they are paying $20 an hour plus full medical to their employees in a podunk place like Pottsville, they are treating their employees really damned well. Union obviously was bringing nothing of benefit to the table, otherwise they wouldn’t have been decertified.

I’ll keep drinking Yeungling, and hopefully it will get more than regional, its a truly great product.

Patio table was covered with these yesterday! Cheap, but definitely better than Bud, Miller, Coors, etc.

Yuengling is an excellent beer. Unfortunately we can't get it here in Ohio. I like to pick up two or three cases whenever I visit PA.

Now I have yet another reason to like the already great beer!

So a business owner can’t tell his workers that the union’s costing too much money and if you don’t dump it I’ll go out of business?

I wonder how much money the union *is* losing due to being kicked out of Yuengling?

I can pretty much guarantee that the people in the Pottsville area could care less what some Union Members from Philly think or say.

God Bless My home town. I like to tell people the room in which I was born, had a window looking out over the brewery.

Steel workers tried for a long time to get into Cressona Aluminum(a couple miles down the road from Pottsville) when that was independent as well. It has since been bought out by Alumax and then by Alcoa. All the employees I know that still work there tell me how much worse the place is once it was bought by the other companies and went Union.

I never even heard of Yuengling before, but I’ll be looking for it my next trip to the store.
