A Brewing Legend Celebrates 190 Years In The Biz With Something Old And Something New (Pottsville, Pa) –  America’s oldest brewery and the largest independent brewer in the nation, D.G. Yuengling & Son is celebrating its 190th anniversary with a series of limited-edition beer can releases. Beginning this month and continuing through April, Yuengling will release five limited-edition cans of Yuengling Lager, one each month, that showcase the evolution of beer label design over the years…

As part of its 190 year celebration, Yuengling will also be debuting a special limited-edition Bourbon Barrel Reserve beer on January 11th at its Pottsville  location that according to USA Today, was aged in a hand dug cave that dates back to the brewery’s beginnings in the late 1800’s.

Established in 1829 Yuengling was originally called Eagle Brewery, which helps to explain the eagle prominently featured on its label today. In addition to its brewery in Pottsville, the company has additional operations in Tampa, as well as in and Mill Creek, Pennsylvania.
