Dixie (or the skeletal remains thereof) is privately owned by Joe and Kendra Bruno who bought the struggling company in 1985. I remember when I lived in NOLA (75-78), Dixie put out a bad batch of beer (it got exposed to floor cleaning chemicals) and suffered a lot of bad publicity. As a result, it sent beer trucks out through the neighborhoods of New Orleans giving away free beer. It's now brewed by Huber Brewery in Monroe, WI.

I forgot Yuengling. Another Pittsburgh beer, as I recall.

Yuengling is from Pottsville, near Allentown. Rolling Rock used to be another, but it has sold out and is no longer brewed in "the glass line tanks in Latrobe, PA," but in Newark by InBev.
