krashkart is from the Czech Republic I dont think Yuengling markets too much outside the US might not be known much west of the Mississippi either.Yuengling producers a lot more barrels than
the second largest American owned brewer Sam Adams 1,500,000 barrels per year Yuengling puts out around 3 million per year.Of course in reality the reason that the worlds largest breweries are owned by conglomerates is because the original owner got a good deal I am sure with the holdings that they get the old owners make much more money than they did separately.You tempt an owner with enough money in most cases he will sell.Anheuser-Busch InBev made a profit of US $4.026 billion in 2010.
If you are a Union man dont drink Yuengling:
"After management threatened to shut down the factory and close shop if workers kept union representation, Yuengling employees filed for union decertification in 2006. As a result, Yuengling did not renew a contract with Teamsters Local 830 of Philadelphia in March 2006.[13] In response, the trade union began boycotting Yuengling products."
