I'm in South western Ohio. This is my favorite beer. When will it come to Ohio, and why hasn't it yet?

I live in Florida and love it too. According to their web site, they are distrubuted in PA, along with 9 other states. There is a contact page, so you might want to email them and ask if they plan on expanding to Ohio, I have looked around on on-line beer sales and haven't found anyone that sells it.
Here is the stuff from their FAQ page:
Why can't I find Yuengling nationwide?
The Yuengling Brewery is a regional brewer that has manufacturing plants in Pottsville, PA and Tampa, FL. Currently we distribute our products over a ten state area along the eastern seaboard. While there is significant interest for our products nationwide, unfortunately we do not have the manufacturing capabilities to service customers across the United States. As a result, our focus and efforts continues to be on our loyal customers and markets that are logistically feasible to our production facilities.
What are your plans for expansion?
Over the past few years Yuengling's expansion into new markets has been limited. Our future plans for expansion are based upon our production capabilities and our ability to properly introduce and service retailers and customers in any new market. Such decisions are
based on a market by market basis.

I drink Yuengling myself. You'll probably be waiting a long time if you wait till it comes to Ohio. Yuengling is a "regional" brewery. It is headquartered in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. I recently was watching the travel channel and they had a special on Yuengling. They produce enough beer on an annual basis to serve their present customers, but really don't have the ability to branch out to other states. Their sales are something along the line of one one hundredth the amount that Bud sells.

Try to find an internet seller from Florida (there's a Yuengling brewery there).
You can't get it that way from Pennsyltucky, we're so backwards.

I don't know when you'll be able to get it in Ohio, but I live in Maryland, and it's pretty readily available here. That seems to be a good sign that the brewery is more heavily distributing out of state. Their website indicates that they distribute currently in NY, PA (obviously), MD, DE, DC, VA, NC, SC, FL, and AL. Depending on your state's import laws, maybe you can have it shipped in.

Ahhh. To live in a state with state run liquor stores and laws. Something that should have gone away oh so long ago. I feel your pain. I live in PA and would be willing to send you some, but that would be breaking the law in two states. I would love to have some beer from Michigan, and asked the stupid state store if they could order it. "If we don't have a contract with the brewery, we can't get it". What a load of crap!

you can ask your liquor store to order a case. sometimes if they dont' carry it, they don't know there's a demand for it until someone asks. My favorite wine wasn't offered at the store i usually go to and then i asked for it and when they put it on the shelves, people started buying it like mad and now its one of their best sellers.
i say ask them to order and then enjoy!!!
and i agree, Yuengling is quite the wonderful tasting beer

This question was asked a couple of months ago. According to the Answerers that seemed legit, apparently the brewery expanded distribution out of PA some years ago but it did not succeed and so it retrenched.
I suggest you email the brewery at its website.

I think you have to jump the border & head to Pennsylvania to get that. Maybe you have some people over there who can bring it to you when they come to visit.? My favorite beer, too. I just moved to South Jersey last year from Florida. That was my beer down there.

Try Tsing Dou or Shanghi if you can find them they are basically the same. They are rice based beers like America style beer, not to be confused with real beer like in Canada or the UK.
