Yuengling, established in 1829, is America's oldest brewery and remains family-owned today. Located in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, it is known for its limited distribution, primarily available in the Northeast and Midwest. Despite its historical significance, the brewery's reach has been constrained; it operates in only 27 states. To endure through Prohibition, Yuengling adapted by producing non-alcoholic beer and starting a dairy business. After Prohibition ended, the company expanded into new markets, notably opening a third brewery in Florida in 1999, leading to increased growth.
The big three of American beer - Anheuser-Busch, Miller, and Coors - are all 19th-century breweries that survived Prohibition, having been founded in 1852, 1855, and 1873.
Yuengling, America's oldest brewery founded in 1829, is a family-owned company that has expanded into new markets while still being limited in availability.
