Yuengling Lager Beer Review (#6)

For my next review, I am going to look at a little darker of beers. This review will focus on Yuengling traditional amber lager. Yuengling, although hard to spell, is a refreshing beer to sit back and relax with. I enjoy the taste of Yuengling very much. Would you care for a fun fact about Yuengling? I hope so because I plan to tell you anyway. Yuengling happens to be America’s oldest brewery with a founding date of 1829.

Let’s look at some nutrition facts for Yuengling. The calorie intake is a little high at 128 per twelve ounces. For a semi darker beer, the calories are not that high at 10 grams for every twelve ounces. The protein is 1 gram per every twelve ounces. I would say that Yuengling is one of the better nutritional darker beers if you do not like light beers.

Yuengling is not too pricey to buy. A twelve pack will cost you around $12-14 dollars while a 24 pack while cost around $19 to purchase. Yuengling is one of those beers that is not sold in a 30 pack. The typically packs range at six packs, twelve packs and twenty-four packs. Yuengling compares pretty well to some light beers in terms of price. Yuengling is about the same price as Michelob Ultra.

Now, let’s compare a couple beers to Yuengling. If you are a fan of Yuengling beer, the first beer I recommend that is similar is the Brooklyn Lager. The Brooklyn Lager is a bit heavier, with 170 calories per twelve ounces. The carb intake is also higher than Yuengling, coming in at 18 grams of carbs for every twelve ounces. It may be heavier, but it still has a soothing taste without giving you a tremendous bloated feeling.

Next, I am going to look at the Thomas Creek Appalachian Amber Ale as a comparison. It is healthier than the Brooklyn Lager, coming in at 124 calories for every twelve ounces. The best part about drinking Thomas Creek Appalachian Amber Ale is that is has around 1 gram of carbs per twelve ounces. The taste is a little different than Yuengling, but it is still very soothing.

Overall, I would say that Yuengling is a very appealing beer. If you are not an avid light beer drinker, I highly recommend grabbing a twelve pack of Yuengling and giving it a try. I would suggest buying it in bottles though, as I find it to be more tasteful in a bottle over a can.
