HAPPY NEW YEAR

Yuengling would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy New Year. In 2009 we celebrated our 180th Anniversary year, and what a great success it was! Successes in 2009 included the seasonal return of Yuengling Bock Beer, a historic partnership with Martin Guitar, and the addition of West Virginia to our distribution area. In the marketplace there were some great promotions and events and we are looking forward to more fun with some great programs in 2010!

Everyone at Yuengling is greatly appreciative of the continued support from our loyal consumers, retailers, and wholesaler partners. As you ring in the new year tonight, raise your glass of Yuengling, and get ready for another exciting year with America's Oldest Brewery. Please enjoy the night responsibly.

MARIETTA 11-19-09

Yuengling was out in the Georgia market recently to thank our retailers for a wonderful first year. We teamed up with Atlanta Beverage – Marietta for a night out at some of the first big Yuengling accounts in this territory. AB Marietta rented the Original Fur Bus, pictured below, for the occasion. The pub crawl stopped at 5 accounts, where the owners were presented with signed Yuengling 180th Anniversary mirrors to thank them for their support. The mirrors were well received, these retailers have been very supportive of the Yuengling brands over the past year. Georgia retailers are also looking forward to the success of Yuengling Black & Tan draught, which has recently become available in their market. Spigots should be popping up all over the state of Georgia soon! If you enjoy Yuengling in Georgia and can’t find Black & Tan on draught, be sure to ask for it at your favorite Yuengling bar!

Thank you to the crew from Atlanta Beverage - Marietta for participating in this event. Also, thank you to everyone in Georgia who has made Yuengling a success over the past year!
