July 7, 201016 yr Got 10 of a 12-pack in the fridge from my trip to Iowa last week. Had 12, but AA got his first taste of the stuff the other day when he stopped by for a short visit. I think he likes …
July 7, 201016 yr Is it a particular specialty type store or any gas station etc? He said he's seen it at a few gas stations periodically, but he usually just gets it at the Kroger on US-50 in Lawrenceburg because they've never been out of it when he's been there.

July 8, 201016 yr Author Good news. I'm in TN and picked up a 6 pack at a gas station in Nashville. Just had the "Skinny Dip." Tasty.
June 12, 201214 yr Well my buddy and/or I still make the trip over to Lawrenceburg every couple of months or so for a small stock of New Belgium beers. I really prefer the 1554 Black Ale, although I generally pick up some Fat Tire as well. Anyway, this past weekend, on the advice from another good friend of mine who is a beer distributor with Stagnaro, we drove up to Aurora and visited the Great Crescent Brewery. I got growlers of their Dark Lager, Aurora Lager, IPA, and Coconut Porter. I've tried the Aurora Lager and the Coconut Porter thus far, and both were absolutely fantastic - especially the Coconut Porter. Anyone else had anything from Great Crescent?

June 12, 201214 yr Right near the top of my list. Love the stuff... How do you compare it to Yeungling (however you spell it)
June 12, 201214 yr How do you compare it to Yeungling (however you spell it) Totally different types of beer so not much to compare...
June 12, 201214 yr How do you compare it to Yeungling (however you spell it) Fat Tire has more "ale" qualities to it...toasted malt on the front end, and a hoppy finish. However, it's not overly pale and it's not too robust a taste for an average beer drinker to enjoy. I'd strongly recommend it for anyone to try.
June 12, 201214 yr Totally different types of beer so not much to compare... If you saw a bottle of Fat Tire and a bottle of Yeungling sitting next to each other in a fridge, which you most often reach for? I ask because I think you have spoke highly of Yeungling before. Just curious which you prefer.

So for friends of mine who I am trying to introduce beers to other and Bud/Coors/Miller, Fat Tire would be a fairly easy drinking beer to try on them? Easier than Yeungling?

I ask because I think you have spoke highly of Yeungling before. Just curious which you prefer. That is a quality over quantity question. Having a good beer with dinner give me the Fat Tire. A night with the little one out of house and it's Yuengling until I am ready for bed... :lol:
June 12, 201214 yr Fat TireI think I might agree here. Last summer my brother got married in Ft Collins, CO. That was my first experience with Fat Tire and it quickly became one of my favorites.

I ask because I think you have spoke highly of Yeungling before. Just curious which you prefer. I have to agree with Clyde and GT. In my opinion Yuengling is 20 times better than Budweiser,Miller and Coors. While Fat Tire is 100 times better than Bud,Miller and Coors. I do love me some Yuengling,I just love me some Fat Tire a whole lot more.
