“The state of West Virginia and Yuengling brand aficionados have eagerly awaited this announcement as avid patrons will no longer have to cross state lines to enjoy their favorite beverage,” stated Larry Oleksa, President/Owner of Mona Supply Co., Inc. “We anticipate an unprecedented rollout of the Yuengling brands in May 2009. Our entire staff of dedicated employees looks forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship for many years to come.”

“Yuengling has experienced a good share of the market in neighboring states to its home state of Pennsylvania. Coupled with the strong demand of our products, expansion into the state of West Virginia was a natural choice for us.” commented Lou Romano, Yuengling Marketing Manager. “We feel our core company values of family, heritage, quality and tradition are reflected not only in the wholesale network, but in the residents of the state as well,” Romano added.

“The time has come and the Yuengling family of beers represents the final frontier. I can think of no other brand left in this country that has the potential to satisfy consumers’ tastes more than the Yuengling brands,” remarks Carl Carenbauer, President/Owner of Carenbauer Distributing Corp.
