Yuengling is coming to Texas this year.

D.G. Yuengling & Son announced that the first state of its westward expansion will be Texas as it partners with Molson Coors to brew its beers in the Lone Star State.

Yuengling is the oldest brewery in the U.S. The Pottsville, Pennsylvania-based brewer currently distributes its beer in 22 states from Massachusetts to Louisiana.
