Yuengling
Oldest American brewery
Yuengling is America's oldest operating brewery, founded in 1829 in Pottsville, Pennsylvania.
The name often refers to the brewery's flagship lager, a amber-colored beer with a malty sweetness: Grab me a Yuengling.
The brand has strong regional identity, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast, where ordering a lager often means Yuengling by default.
