Yuengling Unveils Lineup for Free New Orleans Launch Party

Yuengling, the oldest continuously operating brewing company in the United States, has finally expanded to Louisiana, and they’re throwing a free party to celebrate.

yuengling_laSlated for Thursday, August 4, the celebration will begin at 6pm with outdoor sets from Flow Tribe and Big Sam’s Funky Nation at Fulton Street near Fulton Alley. A second line will then lead the festivities to the Howlin’ Wolf, where Cowboy Mouth will close things out with a show of their own. Yuengling beers will be available for $2 at the event.

Admission to the shows will be free, however fans will only be guaranteed a spot if they RSVP beforehand. All proceeds from the party will benefit the Veterans of Foreign Wars Foundation.

Originally founded in 1829, Yuengling has established itself as a high-quality-yet-affordable beer in much of the United States’ East Coast, as well as parts of the South and Midwest. The brewery begins distributing in Louisiana today.
