ACOUSTIC THROWDOWN

The Wild Wing Cafe in Charleston, SC ran an exciting promotion recently called Acoustic Throwdown. The Acoustic Throwdown promotion sought out the best musicians in the Charleston area for a six week period. Contestants played on Thursdays at the Wild Wing Cafe, in hopes of winning the grand prize of a Limited Edition Yuengling Martin Guitar. Patrons who came out to these events enjoyed the music along with $2.50 Yuengling pints and bottles! By the end of August, 50 artists had competed and it was time to select a champion.

The winner of the contest was an artist named Jameson, who blew the crowd away and walked away with the grand prize. Thank you to everyone who competed and to Wild Wing Cafe, for finding this guitar a good home!

I live near Bloomington, IN and have been a Yuengling beer drinker for years. Every time I visit my son in Western PA, I bring home a few cases of Black and Tan. I have shared this beer with a few friends and now have a standing order to bring back 8 cases of Black and Tan every time I visit my son. I recently checked with a large liquour store in Bloomington (they have 8 stores) and was told that they can't get Yuengling. My question..... when will you begin distributing (or do you have plans to distribute)in Indiana?

Thanks,

Thanks for checking out the blog. Right now we are finishing up opening the state of West Virginia. The brewery expands the distribution territory on a state by state basis. Before we would expand into a new state we would need to be sure that we could meet the growing needs of our existing markets as well as the new demand. We appreciate your support of the Yuengling brands, and thank you for your patience as we expand slowly as the production capabilities allow.
