PROFILE |
 |
Calling itself America's oldest brewery, D.G. Yuengling & Son is out to prove that wine isn't the only drink that gets better with age. The brewer, founded in 1829, brews about 800,000 barrels a year sold in six states; its craft brews include Black & Tan, Chesterfield Ale, Lager, Light, Premium, and Porter. Yuengling (say ying-ling) tapped into the southeastern US market when it bought a brewery in Tampa, Florida, in 1999. It is more than tripling its production capacity with the construction of a new plant near its original site. The Yuengling family has declined buyout offers from industry giants such as Anheuser-Busch. President and CEO Dick Yuengling is active in the Republican Party.
