Yuengling Black and Tan

Pros: Good flavor profile; Smooth and easy drinking
Cons: Light for black and tan

As most of my friends and family know, I prefer dark beer to light beer. If given a choice, I almost always reach for my favorite stout or porter when I’m at home, in a tavern, or visiting a fine restaurant with a good beer selection. On ...

Pros: Very flavorful, good roasty notes.
Cons: Slightly pasty grainy notes.

If most of us had the time, energy, and resources, we’d likely travel the world and explore its many wonders. It’s a dream many of us share, yet few are fortunate enough to fulfill. If we have the money, we don’t have the time. If we have the ...

Pros: Flavorful and smooth
Cons: My local corner bar took it off draught

In my many years of drinking beer, I have tried many extreme and interesting beers. There are many beers I absolutely love that would be spit out by many beer drinkers. Not everyone has an adventurous flair when it comes to beer consumption. That...

Pros: Has character; not a common style; has popped up at Yankee Stadium.
Cons: Less popular than its big brother, if you can find it at all.

By now everyone who drinks beer (at least in the East) has heard of Yuengling and, if they venture into bars on a semi-regular basis, has sampled Yuengling. The brewery's basic amber lager is pleasant enough, a bit sweet but at least has ...

Pros: One of the best widely-available Black & Tans on the market.
Cons: Not quite as good as the real thing, but close.

Yuengling first made its appearance in my area this past summer. Before that time, I had only heard of Yuengling from Epinions and buddies that had traveled up north. My first taste was the lager, an excellent beer in its own right (but that's for...

Pros: slightly sweet taste, very smooth finish; light body
Cons: taste is flat and a little dry

Ordering a black and tan at a restaurant or bar is one of my favorite beverages to enjoy while out on the town. Trying to make one at home myself doesn rsquo;t work, so several breweries have attempted to bottle beers already mixed. Since ...

Pros: very smooth and drinkable
Cons: fans of Guinness will find this unfamiliar

Beer is yucky. Well, that's what I thought for a long time, but it turns out that beer wasn't yucky, I was drinking yucky beer. Being underaged in Pennsylvania, with some of the most regressive alcohol laws in the country, we always sacrificed...

Pros: rich but not too heavy
Cons: true fans of dark beer might find it weak

As background, I am 22. I am female. I don't drink a lot of beer. Sure, I had my moments in college involving a case of Molson Canadian or Red Dog, but those days are long gone already. I have reached a new phase in my life where I drink things I like...

Pros: Smooth & dark
Cons: Expensive & rare outside of Schuylkill County, PA

When I lived near Pottsville, Pennsylvania in the early-mid 90's I had a close friend who worked at Yuengling Brewery, the oldest brewery in America. Ed once told me that Yuengling management allowed the employees to "sample" the product as...

Pros: Rich, but not overpowering
Cons: Limited availability?

I am not a beer expert. But I do know what I like -- and I love Yuengling Black and Tan. I don't generally like dark beers; they're too heavy and filling for me, and the aftertaste can be somewhat overpowering. But Yuengling has one of the smoothest...

Pros: Great taste very smooth
Cons: hard to find

OK I'll admit it. I like sweet beers. Scotch ales, barley wines, even hard ciders are in my opinion far superior to your typical lager. So my first introduction to YBnT was particularly fortuitous. A local tavern had decided to expand beyond the usual...

Pros: Uncharacteristically light bodied, with a hint of roasted barley
Cons: Not for the faint of heart.

Don't let the color of this beer shy you away from trying it. I don't know how many times I've heard people say, "I'm not into those STOUT beers.". Let me just say now, for those who may be reading this that haven't tried this beer that it is no where...

Pros: A solid, substantial beer that goes down smooth without being light
Cons: None of the microbrew funny label distinction

The first thing I should tell you about myself is that I am a big fan of Guinness Stout. I love a dark beer, and tend to be unimpressed with most of the standard, lighter beers. It's frustrating to me in the summer time to see all the lite beers, so ...

Pros: deep, sweet and creamy
Cons: quick buzz

I had been a lite beer drinker for quite a number of years and hadn't found any other kind that was satisfying while living in Pennsylvania. One evening, for a change in pace, I tried a beer that was new on the market. It was Yuengling Black and...

Pros: really good beer, short stumpy asian kid
Cons: i don't really know much about beer

Yuengling is the oldest brewerey in America and is located in Pennsylvania. It is relatively unknown to people outside of Pennsylvainia which is an anomaly because it makes great beer. The Black and Tan has great body and goes down easily. There is no...
