I love this stuff! I can't get it im St. Louis though! Unless someone knows a place!
I usually stock up on the stuff when I am in Florida but it goes fast.
Anyone else had it. It's like nectar!

I grew up drinking it. It's not bad for a lager, but honestly, I think it used to be better before they started distributing more nationally.

I'd say about 3/4 of them that I've had were clearly oxidized. I don't know why, but it's there.

It was good when it was still made in PA. Once they moved it to Florida, it changed for the worse. Ironically, it happened at the same time they went a little bigger regionally, so they probably modded the recipe to keep the price down and make it more BMC friendly.
I have to assume you're talking about Yueng Lager. They make some good and some really bad stuff (Lord Chesterfield Ale being the worst - and Yuengling Porter being the best!).
Their pre-made black and tan isn't too bad, but obviously pre-made in a single bottle isn't really a black and tan..

IIRC Lager is made in both locations. They bought the FLA brewery to distribute down that way.

Do you think it went downhill or your palate went uphill?

It had been years since the last time I had it but recalled thinking it was rather good. ...didn't have a clear memory of the flavor. Doubtless I have experienced a number of other porters in the meantime.
At least the case was cheap.
