Landshark spotted in Chicago Area.

Finally, I found it at my little corner store in Plainfield whcih is not where I first expected to find it. I was actually quite surprised. I guess the store started carrying it last week. The store owner said he is moving more Miller Chill to Landshark right now. I forgot what I paid for it but being a convienence store odds are I paid too much.

Either way it was not a bad beer to me. It was very Corona-esque especially when I added the lime. It is smooth and easy. I figured like Michalob Ultra with a bit more flavor. It was a refreshing summer beer. I would buy it again but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Enjoy!

Well, now I'll at least be able to bring a six pack home with me in a couple weeks when I'm there. I've heard both extremes about that beer, so I'm just more curious than anything else.
Whether it's eventually available here or not makes no difference.
As long as CORONA is available here, all is right with the world.

Garry, Garry, Garry, Garry, Garry....

I need to introduce you to the wonderful world of "beer you can't see through".

As long as it's not any kind of "LITE" beer (or that Guiness crap), I can usually drink it without puking my guts out.
But sorry, CORONA is the best.

And Budweiser is the best domestic beer.

Does that mean the experiment is over and the Landshark can now flow nationwide? Here's hoping!:lol:

It's been here for a couple weeks....... not a big demand so most stores are not going to stock it...

Needs to make its way about 7 hours SOUTH- you know, in the other part of Illinois that seems to be forgotten. It would get bought here- trust me!

I just had my first Land Shark Lager last night. Found it at Woodman's Market in North Aurora. Right off of I-88 and Orchard road.

I liked it alot. Looks like i'll be getting some of that to take to Tinley Park!

Isn't Woodmans a great store? I go to the Kenosha one periodically.

<--- is good on a hot day

But I also like Guiness, New Castle, Boddingtons and Fat Tire ... Red Tail Ale is good too.

Why is everyone dying to get this p*** water??? It's awful, I couldn't even finish the first one I had. Think really bad watery American beer.

Probably! I did my part in Florida. I drank enough of it so that the entire nation could have it distributed!

No, really, I'm a little excited it made it to Chicago and I don't have to figure out how to smuggle it there when I go to the concert!

Ummm, some of us actually LIKE this p*** water, and the more it sells, the faster it will get to those of us that are not fortunate enough to live in a place where it is already selling.

If you don't like it, fine, but why try and keep other people from trying it? If it sells well, is that going to have any impact on you? No, but for those of us that like it, the better the sales, the better our chances of it getting to our neck of the woods quicker.

I doubt they will carry Landshark out here in the Northwest but I am going to be in Atlanta in August some I am hoping to find it out there, and give it a try.

I am willing to smuggle boot legged Land Shark for anyone who wants it and will be at the Tinley Park show.

I agree, Corona at any time is the best. However, I do like Guiness from time to time. I will only drink Budweiser if there is nothing else to drink, even warm chunky style milk comes before Bud.
