I took a tour of their Tampa brewery and they said they are at capacity for their currently distribution area and would have to expand their operations before moving into new markets.


They were in negotiations with AB-Inbev for awhile to let them handle manufacturing and distribution. Last I heard those negotiations had fell through.

That would kind of surprise me since AB sued Yuengling for the use of the eagle logo when it was Yuengling that used it first actually. But of course now days, money talks!

That would surprise me as well. Yuengling spent a ton refurbing the Brewery here in Tampa and continue to upgrade so I'm not sure how likely they would be to turn it over to AB-Inbev. Not that a truck load of $ hasn't changed things before but it just doesn't seem like that's the approach Yuengling takes to business.

It's still family owned but I see as shares get dispersed surely someone will not care for running a brewery and cash out in a generation or two.
