I'm going to be camping in Crater Lake with a whole bunch of people. It will be a massive potluck. My job is to bring beers for everyone. Any suggestions on which beers everyone will like?

I found this article kinda helpful and fun: https://squatchboxx.net/adventures-in-beer/

Any other suggestions?

I'm a craft beer guy, so for outdoors I'd suggest something on the lighter end that nonetheless has some character.

Anchor "Steam Beer" (a California classic)
Narragansett Lager (if you can find it on the West coast)
Victory Prima Pils (seriously one of the best Pilsners out there)
(good ole') Yuengling

The Narragansett and Yuengling should be the most affordable of these. Anchor usually isn't too expensive.

If you must choose from among the el-cheapo beers; go with PBR. Actually tastes like hops.

I like Yuengling which is supposed to be the oldest private brewer in the USA. Easy on the wallet and tastes really good on a hot summer day when it is ice cold. Can't buy it in Vermont for some reason but when I go to NY state they have it.

Plenty of light beer, some Yuengling, and a couple of growlers of local craft beer should make the crowd happy.

Yuengling Black and Tan is my favorite beer but you can only buy Yuengling east of the Mississippi and you can't even get it in every state back there. They refuse to expand any bigger than they have to so the family can maintain full control of things. They did open a small brewery in FL to supply the southeast but for the most part it is found in the north east.

Shiner Bock is a good beer and when I run out of Yuengling is the one I go to. My wife goes home the NH every year to see here family and I have her bring a bunch of Black and Tans back when she goes. I have 10 bottles left in the fridge so I'm rationing it right now.

Shriner Bock? Think maybe you mean Shiner. Sorry, I pictured some Texan Brewmaster wearing a fez.

Yep, that's what happens when I get to typing and someone comes up and talks to me and then I don't double check it. My bad. Typo corrected.

the best beer is beer someone else buys
