yuengling

I was just thinking about my last blog. Yuengling is the oldest brewery in the U.S. and I aint never heard of it until just recently, not that I think I've heard of everything but still.....

I think the problem is the name, like I said before, I aint going in no bar and ordering a Ying-ling. Think about it a little bit, Adolphus Busch didn't name his beer "Adolphusweiser", he went with "Budweiser". It's easy and feels right to say "Gimme a Bud". I think they call it marketing and I got a few ideas for the Yuengling Beer Company.

They need a catchy name, I aint even sure how to say Yuengling. I'd suggest "Hoeweiser". How does that sound? Walk up to the bar and say "Gimme a Hoe." Tell the waiter "I'll have a Hoe". If you wanted a light beer, you could order a "Skinny Hoe", a draft (no can/bottle) could be a "Naked Hoe". If you wanted lime with it, make it a "Mexican Hoe", instead of a "tall boy" (16 oz. can), you could have a "Big Hoe", guess that would make a "pony" a "Midget Hoe". Seasonal beers are popular now, Decembers could be the "Hoe-Hoe-Hoe". A non-alcoholic version would be a "Faux Hoe". Can you imagine the superbowl halftime commercials?

I could go up to the bar and say "Gimme a Hoe, and make sure it's got good head."

redneck beer review # 5

I won't take the credit for going out and trying this beer on my own. I was asked to pick up some of this beer while I was on the coast. Here in north Mississippi there are just so many new things to try. I picked up a case and figured I could drink one just cause I was nice enough to get it and haul it all the way back home.

As with my last beer review, I was on the coast so I figured it couldn't be to bad, even if it was the same beer that Pres. Obama likes.

Anyhow, I was suprised, this is pretty good beer. For some reason, I thought it would be kinda strong. Other than just a little wang on the first swallow, it was not strong at all, that's coming from someone that drinks Busch Light all the time. Next time I think I'll try the regular instead of the light but I won't be ordering it in a bar. How the hell do you say it? It would just sound like I was ordering a Ling-ling.

What I liked about it: cold, crisp, light beer. Not too strong, you could drink several of them. Oldest brewery in the U.S. I never heard of it (north Mississippi remember) but that's what the web site says. http://www.yuengling.com/history.htm

What I didn't like: Some politician is the reason I heard of it before. More expensive than my regular beer. It's made in Pennsylvania, I'm from the south, can't help it.

REDNECK RANK: A couple of good cold beers while waiting on the grill to get hot. Good beer.
