Yuengling Brewery Tour

The story of America’s Oldest Brewery began when David G. Yuengling settled in the sleepy, coal-mining town of Pottsville, Pennsylvania. The story of Yuengling is the story of the American Spirit. It’s a tale of shared dreams, individual tenacity and an unwavering dedication to standards of quality. American dream of countless young immigrants looking for opportunity and emerges from the strength and will of one family determined to build their legacy in a new country. 

Please remember this is a working and actively running brewery. You will encounter a real manufacturing environment. Here are a few reminders:

1. All tour visitors must wear completely closed shoes. No sandals, flip flops, clogs, Crocs, or anything with openings around your foot is acceptable. It must be a completely closed shoe. To be safe, sneakers work best.
