I'm in PA and went to Penn State, Yuengling Lager was sold by the gallon. Frankly, I think it's dreadful. Perhaps because I drank a lot of it during my college days. I have not picked it up in close to 15 years.
Also not a Victory fan. Dogfish Head is good, however. Troegs is a little brewer in Harrisburg that is also churning out some good stuff. A nod to Magic Hat HIPA as well.
If you don't want a hoppy brew, I suggest Franziskaner Heffeweiss. They should have it at Oktoberfest. Better than Franzis, however, is Wiehenstephaner Heffeweiss. An outstanding wheat beer, very refreshing.
And though it pains me to say this, Safari Amber isn't too bad for a re-badged Michelob. It's drinkable enough on a hot day in the park.
Bottom Line - skip the Yuengling and head over to Oktoberfest for Franzis or Big River for a flight of stuff, just skip the light entry.
