    None. That's why I joined BA. For better beers out there!

    Seasonal or year round? Not sure. Mine came as part of their new Summer Seasonal case which I ordered as my regular place doesn't normally stock Straub. If you chat with @KOP_Beer_OUtlet he may be able to help you find some. The varieity case is probably the way you'd have to go but that’s not a bad thing as each of the beers is tasty. (The 1872, An Heffe, an IPL, and a Pilsener). I found that @WVbeergeek did descriptions of each that I found pretty much spot on. However my case was dated in mid May so we're about two months out.

    Thanks- that seasonal case does sound like just what I was hoping to get. Jack did give me some suggestions on where to shop, so hopefully I can find some in my travels.

    Yuengling's step 1 in how their beer is brewed makes note of corn grits being a part of the mash...corn grits actually being used for a light body...

    Straub 1872 is at Wayward Beverage in Kennett Square or try Joe Burns Beverage west of Downingtown on US 322. Far as I know it's a limited year round release? 24 packs only?

    Brewers Outlet on US 202 near Delaware State line most likely has it as well?

    Carib and Presidente. They aren't brewed in the USA, but they are classified as AALs and taste damn good on a Caribbean beach.

    I think SC is under Pale Lager, but wgaf? Good Stuff!!! I've had Twins and Grainy, need Hauenstein!!

    Supper Club definitely is made with corn grits. I see a lot of AALs on this site incorrectly listed under that non-adjunct American lager category.

    I live in the Twin Cities and I've never seen Twins Lager, so that's pretty awesome. Hauenstein is becoming pretty common in the package stores here...you can even find tall boy cans at some pretty reputable establishments!

    Gotta be Schmidt. My dad drank it, and if he liked it, so did I. Wish I could get the old-school recipe brew. But that is lost to time.

    Hamm's, it's cheap and inoffensive like a good adjunct lager should be. Enough talk, I have to finish mowing the lawn.
