Established in 1849
The company was founded by August Krug in 1849, but ownership passed to Joseph Schlitz in 1858 when he married Krug's widow. Schlitz was bought by Stroh Brewery Company in 1982 and subsequently sold along with the rest of Stroh's assets to Pabst Brewing Company in 1999. Pabst produced several varieties of Schlitz beers alongside Old Milwaukee.
Admin Note: Old Milwaukee was originally a Schlitz brand but Pabst has broken it off into its own separate brand.

Bought this as a joke, and boy, it sure was funny!
Just an awful mess of booze, and rotten corn. One drink, and the rest was right down the drain.

Tastes like shit but I'm having an amazing conversation.

Bottle from Liquor Junction, Reading. Crystal-clear pale gold with tons of sparkle, thin head quickly fading to fizzy cap and light lacing. Aroma is pale malt, corn, minerals, mild wet leaves. Taste is pale malt, sweet corn. Smooth texture, virtually flat carbonation, finish as taste. I usually don't like to pay the higher price for craft lagers (so opt for other, more flavorful styles) but, if I could only drink lagers, I would pay up to upgrade from this. Takes me back to underage/early working days.

Undated bottle from tfontana, drunk 11/26/24. Thanks, Tom! Clear pale brass. Large, frothy, white head. Moderate retention. Bit of metal and seltzer, corn, glue and vanillin. Fizzy with powdered sugar character. Kind of oddly sweet and cloying. Little/no bitterness. Not good!

12 oz bottle in a trade with tfontana, ty Tom. Flavor is simple and smooth but really not much here. Corn, mild malt and weak minerals. The finish is real clean, no lager yeast after taste. A touch sweet. Nothing off putting.

Skunky aroma. Crisp lager flavor, starts corny sweet with a lemon bitterness. Crisp finish.

Canned (thanks GodOfThunder!). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is rice, some corn and mild salty elements. Flavour is maize, rice and some earthy tones. Sweet'n'cheap.
