Latrobe Brewing Company in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, founded in 1939, was one of the largest breweries in the United States and the maker of "Rolling Rock" beer (famous for its small green bottles). It was purchased by Labatt Brewing Company in 1987, which in turn was purchased in 1995 by the Belgian brewing conglomerate corporation Interbrew, which merged later into InBev in 2004.
In May 2006, InBev announced that it was selling the "Rolling Rock" brands to Anheuser-Busch, (Budweiser), the largest brewer in the United States. This sale, however, excluded the Brewery, leaving an uncertain future for the Latrobe brewery, which only continued producing the Rolling Rock Brands through July 31, when production was moved to an Anheuser-Busch facility in Newark, New Jersey.
