City Brewing Company

From Beeripedia the Beer Wiki

City Brewing Company is a large brewery located in La Crosse, Wisconsin. It also goes by the trade name of City Brewery.

The brewery was founded in 1999, and uses the buildings of the old G. Heileman Brewing Company. That brewing company, which previously had produced 17 million barrels annually, was sold to an Australian company, the Bond Corporation, before the company name and beer brands were eventually acquired by the Pabst Brewing Company in 1999. The La Crosse brewery was bought by a group of investors who founded the City Brewing Company.

City Brewery is also the name of a company founded by Johann Braun in 1846 which merged into the Valentin Blatz Brewing Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

In September of 2006, the company agreed to purchase the Latrobe Brewing Company in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.

Production of Sam Adams started in early April, 2007.

City Brewery Latrobe has entered into an agreement with the Boston Beer Company, brewer of Samuel Adams beer.
