Sorry for the delay in posting. I’ve been dealing with car and website issues and things are finally starting to get back to normal. I’m still fixing the photos on my old posts.
Today I drove to Pottsville, PA to visit the Yuengling Brewery. This is the oldest operating brewery in the country. The tour was free, which is unusual for a big brewery. We started off going through the caves, then up through the brewery, the production line, and finished in the old ice cream building. During prohibition they switched to making ice cream. They did still make some beer, but you had to get a prescription for it. Next to their gift shop they had a museum for the brewery. After the tour I hung out and talked with the tour guides and tried all of the beers until they closed.
