    I recently purchased a 6-pack of Straub American Lager for summertime drinking (i.e., lawnmower beer). It is a very well made beer but just a tad too sweet for my palate.

    The Straub 1872 is a tasty Pre-Prohibition Lager. I still have a couple bottles left from my purchase of the Straub Summer Variety pack I bought in June.

    Cheers to Straub Brewing!

    Well, here is a link to Wikipedia that says they may not be as "American" as you think: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SABMiller

    Old Style and High Life will always have prime real estate in my beer fridge.
    And we just got Hamm's in 30 packs for $11.99 at the Jewel! Had maybe one a long time ago, never purchased, and I must say it's pretty darn good. Sky blue waters indeed.

    Carton makes an Agave AAL called Canyon that is super tasty! Too bad it's still draft only, and mostly available at the brewery...

    Interesting, thanks for that.

    Still, Banquet is brewed a few miles from my house
    Did not know that, though it seems that it is jointly owned Cana-di-an and Murican, while Bud n friends have zero Murican ownership. Oh well, they still brew the Dankquet a few miles from my house and it is far and away the best AAL in the US.

    Cheers!

    How does Yuengling differentiate the bottles and cans brewed and packaged at the original brewery and their new "Mill Creek" brewery on the outskirts of Pottsville? I imagine there's a different letter in their date code that represents their 3 different breweries but have never studied the Yuengling coding (besides looking - in vain - for some fresh Lord Chesterfield Ale cans).

    PBR would be my choice....or Lone Star, but it really tears up my stomach.

    Many Americans and U.S. financial institutions hold InBev ADR's, so it's partially owned by Americans

    Second! Pretty much all of their brews are solid, and their AAL is no exception.

    They make a pretty good shandy too

    Try Narragansett and tell me "Danquet" is even close. Yuengling has more flavor. Coors is to me an insipid glass of water. But that's just me.
