America’s oldest brewery is once again expanding its footprint in the Midwest. On Monday, D.G. Yuengling & Sons announced that the entire Yuengling portfolio, including its iconic amber lager, will finally be distributed in Iowa and Wisconsin early next year.
Founded by David G. Yuengling in Pottsville, Pa. in 1829, Yuengling is the country’s largest independent brewery, operated by the Yuengling family for six generations. The beer has historically only been distributed along the East Coast, but that changed in 2020 when D.G. Yuengling & Sons announced a joint venture with Molson Coors Beverage Company.
