Yuengling on the verge of becoming America’s largest brewery
Thursday, April 9th, 2009When you think of America’s largest brewery, you immediately think of Budweiser, right? Nope, acquired by foreigners last year. MillerCoors as well.
That leaves Boston Beer Co., maker of the Sam Adams line of beers, as the largest pure American brewer. However, riding a 20-year wave of growth, Yuengling is rapidly closing in on that title. Right now the beer is only available in a dozen states, so there’s plenty more room for growth too. Check out this PennLive article for lots of info on Yuengling’s history and how the brewery got where it is today. There’s even a video of the Yuengling brewery.
If it’s available in your area, enjoy some “Vitamin Y” in one of our many fine beer glasses.
