I didn't even know Yuengling came in green bottles. That seems wrong. No dark beer should ever come in a green bottle.

Yuengling comes in several varieties, it is a brand name, not a type of beer, as you can see by looking at the picture in this thread the green bottle is labeled lager, which is typically not a dark beer

yuengling's black & tan and porter varieties do in fact come in brown bottles

I was aware of all of this except that the lagers specifically came in green bottles. I also seem to remember them being dark enough to come in a brown bottle, but then, I consider "not yellow" dark enough.

I don't really care for Dos Equis much, either. And someone, probably MrWookie because he's the noted beer connoisseur, called Stella the Grey Goose of beers. Soooo... I'm not really sold on anything besides PU.

First off, how can you not like Dos Equis?

Second off, I always think of you when I see that "most interesting dude" dos equis commercial. Does anyone else think Nath is like that?

I dunno. It's all right, I guess, but... whatever. I don't think it's anything special and I don't buy it.

Putting beer in green and white bottles totally ruins the taste of it b/c the light seaps through and ferments in ... thats why Samuel Adams ( my only beer I drink) Uses brown bottles.

Thanks for fine-tuning the discussion through the use of such precise, technical terminology.

this link was one of the first in a google search.

funny quote:

"Understanding mechanisms behind changes in beer tastes is important because the world beer industry is hoping to save money by storing, shipping and selling beer in less expensive clear glass," Forbes said. "Producers of Miller Genuine Draft, for example, already do that by adding a chemically modified hop compound to the beer. We have found evidence that Miller beer is still photochemically active, but it doesn’t make the same free radicals, and so those can’t lead to bad-tasting skunky thiols as quickly."

Corona beer also is sold in clear bottles, but manufacturers do not used a modified hop product, he said. Instead, they usually keep their bottles boxed to exclude light and encourage drinkers to add a slice of lime to improve the odor.
