Current Goal

This bug is attached to a Yuengling bottle/can opener. Yuengling is the oldest Brewery in America. Located in Pottsville, PA they started brewing in 1829, 5 generations later they are still brewing there today. The goal of this opener/bug is to travel around the WORLD while assisting thirsty, beer-lovin' Geocachers open as many different kinds of beer as possible after that long day out in the field. It started its journey by opening an ice-cold bottle of Traditional Lager on 5/27/03 in Lancaster, PA.

About This Item

America's Oldest Brewery Bug - by iBrew

Please, DO NOT acquire this bug unless you plan on opening and logging a "DIFFERENT" type of beer with it. After acquiring this bug and opening a beer with it - log info on the brand, style and type of beer it was used to open (multiple opens per stop are encouraged). If you have a digital camera, why not take a picture of the label and upload it? Let’s see how many different types of beer across the globe we can log. Please keep the message with the bug in a zip-lock baggie as you move from cache to cache. Thanks for playing!

We headed to Arkansas for a day on Mt Magazine and thought this would be a great stop for the travel bug. We placed him in a cache at the very top - the highest spot between the Rocky mountains and the Appalachian mountains! We had a beautiful hike on the way up and got rained on all the way down!! We added a Coors Light top and a Piedmont Porter top to the stash!!

Grab It (Not from a Cache) 6/1/2004 okierut grabbed it   Visit Log

Looks like this bug had a few too many...the log is messed up. We picked this up in Mardi Gras Madness in Pensacola Beach. This was our first travel bug find and we didn't know we were supposed to log it until we placed it in a new cache!!

Been enjoying one of the finest micro breweries at McGuire's Irish Pub in Pensacola. Did not get to open any bottles since Florida law requires beer to be sold on premises. Ready to get on the road again.

Placed in new cache - Fishy Business on May 9, 2004.
