History
Founded in 1858 by John Gund and Gottlieb Heileman in La Crosse, WI. It became the G. Heileman Brewing Co. in 1872 and grew into a national powerhouse, producing brands like Old Style. After facing financial struggles and bankruptcies in the 1990s under various owners, the plant was closed in 1999. It was resurrected in 2000 as City Brewery by local investors and former employees who sought to preserve the city's brewing legacy.
