Someone mentioned Russian ownership of PBR in this thread. The heavy malt flavor was also brought to my attention by this thread. Around the same time Yuenglings wrapped up there lawsuit against Anwiser Bush and were awarded the label of America's Oldest Brewery. I always liked 'lings but now I feel downright patriotic drinking it. And it's price makes me happy purchasing it :)

Depends on distribution agreements. NY is right next door to PA where it is brewed, so that makes sense. Apparently it was available in MA about 20 years ago, but it didn't sell well, so they stopped selling it in the state. It was reintroduced two years ago and does well now.

I'd be surprised to see it in VT. Such a craft focused market there that I doubt it would sell well enough to be worth their while.

lots of coors and bud in the stores in VT, i'd think that would be the market YL is part of rather than craft beers.. .but i have very pedestrian taste in beer, coors light is my standard beer.
