Yuengling’s Spring Scholarship Empowers Next Wave of Female Brewers
March 19, 2020 | Taylor LaabsNow more than ever, the craft beer industry needs good news One bright light in this period of uncertainty comes from America’s oldest brewery, D.G.

Yuengling & Son of today is comprised of the brewery’s first generation of all-female leadership.
