State?

Pottsville, Pennsylvania.

From the Wikipedia:

D. G. Yuengling & Son is the oldest operating brewing company in the United States, established in 1829. It is one of the largest breweries by volume in the country. Based on sales in 2011, Yuengling was tied with the Boston Beer Company, maker of Samuel Adams brands, as the largest American-owned brewery.[2] Its headquarters are in Pottsville, Pennsylvania.[3] Yuengling produces about 2.8 million barrels annually, operating two Pennsylvania facilities and a brewery in Tampa, Florida.

Yuengling is pronounced Listeni/ˈjɪŋlɪŋ/ YING-ling, and is an Anglicized version of Jüngling, its founder's surname and the German term for "young man".

The family-owned brewery has traditionally changed ownership through the purchase of the company by the offspring of the previous owner.[4] Due to the popularity of Yuengling Traditional Lager in Pennsylvania and the Delaware Valley (including South Jersey), it can be ordered by simply asking for a lager.[5][6]

We always have Yuengling in the house. Now, it will taste even better.

Does Yuengling make a Light beer? If so, I will check it out...

Of course the state should have been clearly mentioned at the top, as it should on any thread referring to some location unknown to most of us, or one where they are probably one town or county with that name in every state. It wouldn’t have taken much extra time to have included it, would it, “Dude”?

Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania

Actually, I found this video to be fascinating. The history of the old brewery, the great old photographs, the wonderful German immigrant work ethic passed down through the generations up to today. And the pride of both the workers and the owners in their product, is heartwarming. I recommend watching this video to everyone. You will enjoy it immensely. I sure did. Too bad I don’t drink beer, lol.

They do though I didn’t like it as much as the regular. I have toured the Yuengling brewery in Penn.

I like it but the last time I checked you can’t get it in my part of Texas.

Been drinking Yuengling for probably about 20+ years now. The most flavorful domestic beer out there, Trump or no Trump. But if Trump doesn’t win, I suspect I’ll be drinking a lot more of it. That or just go straight to the liquor cabinet....

Not in TX nor Missouri, sad to say. Maybe someday soon? Even tried to order from local distributor. No way I was told. I like it. I've had it in Tunica Casinos. Elsewhere.

I made Yuengling my choice after reading up on the company some time ago. I wanted an American beer and I also like a lager.

I get it whenever I go east. I like it and hope they sell it in Texas at some point.

They made it to Louisiana this past August, so they’re right next door to you now. I’m sure Texas is high on the list for territory expansion.
