POTTSVILLE, Pa. — One day in 1980, John Callahan was driving carefully down the steep Mahantongo Street in this Schuylkill County town when he spied a person standing outside the D.G. Yuengling and Sons Brewery.

Mr. Callahan, who had lost his job four days earlier, was desperate to find employment, so he slowed down and on a whim shouted out his car window at the guy: “Hey, buddy. Any jobs?”

“I really didn’t expect him to even answer me,” said Mr. Callahan, as he gave me a tour of the deep cellar of the ancient brewery. “To my astonishment, he waved me over and said, ‘Come on in.’ His name was Ray Norbert. He was the brew master at the time, and he hired me that day.”

Mr. Callahan started scrubbing the floors and cleaning the massive tanks. Today, 43 years later, he is the plant manager, overseeing America’s oldest brewery, which has been in operation and owned by the same family since Andrew Jackson was in his first term as president.

Yep. I did a quick search and found this one: https://thepostmillennial.com/yuengling-sponsors-pa-pride-drag-show-for-families

The article you shared makes it pretty damn clear:

Yuengling responded:

“Yuengling actively promotes responsible drinking for patrons 21 years of age and older. We are working to align with ArtsQuest regarding appropriate age restrictions for venues associated with our sponsorship. We support their decision to restrict attendance to 18+ for the June 30th show. For more information, contact info@artsquest.org.”

According to an April article in Blaze News, Yuengling tweeted a simple message with a photograph of the U.S. flag and a bottle of its beer during the Anheuser-Busch controversy with transgender TikTok activist Dylan Mulvaney’s partnership with Bud Light.

“The Yuengling Brewery made headlines in 2016 when its owner, Richard Yuengling Jr., publicly endorsed then-candidate Donald Trump for president. Some on the left were outraged at his endorsement, and the controversy led to some gay bars banning Yuengling from being served,” the article continued.

Hmmm. Folks, is Yuengling playing both sides of the woke culture war? Pick a side or slide into the woke wasteland. Putting profit over children is not faring well for beer and liquor companies.
