Rolling Rock Beer

July 26, 2006 marked the last day Rolling Rock will be brewed and bottled at Latrobe Brewing Company. A deal was put in place to allow Rolling Rock workers to keep their jobs. The union approved an agreement with City Brewing on Sunday. The Wisconsin-based company will buy the Latrobe Brewery from In-Bev USA. The Rolling Rock beer brand was sold to Anheuser-Busch.

The singer is Todd Wilson from Youngstown, Pa. Rolling Rock may still say Latrobe Brewing on it but anyone that really knows the truth, is aware that Rolling Rock is made by Budwieser nowdays and it tatses nothing like the true rock did. By the way the former Latrobe Brewing Plant in Latrobe Pa now Produces Samual Admas and is owed by City Brewing of LaCrosse Wisc.

Thanks, ryanwpa. Beer isn't the same since Rolling Rock is gone. RR tastes like shit now. It's a tragedy.

I read that union settled and workers still got paid. Not sure I'm getting the whole story. URclueless, Isn't this Canadian Beer? IF so then who lost their jobs when the moved bottling from Canada to Latrobe?

[tunethony]

Rolling Rock was always made in Latrobe. Rolling Rock was once owned by Canadian Labatt Breweries, but it was never bottled in Canada.
