Frederick Yuengling (
i/ˈjɪŋlɪŋ/ YING-ling) (January 26, 1848 - January 2, 1899) was known for being the second president and owner of America's oldest brewery, D. G. Yuengling & Son.
Frederick Yuengling was born to David Yuengling and wife Elizabeth (née Betz) on January 26, 1848. He attended Pennsylvania State College and then the Manhattan Business School in Poughkeepsie, New York. In 1871, his father sent him to Europe to learn more about brewing, where he studied in Munich, Stuttgart and Vienna.
Yuengling married his wife, Minna Dohrman of Brooklynn, on April 3, 1873. Minna was from the "uppermost social class" in New York and enjoyed the mannered social scene in Pennsylvania. The newlyweds purchased a townhouse on Mahantongo Street, a street known for its "opulence" at the time. The house had six bedrooms, formal living rooms, formal dining rooms, a music room, tiled entryways, a Spanish crystal chandelier and German stained-glass windows.
