Growing up in Dayton/Cincinnati, I still recall those “Kings” during high school daze...
Yeah, you were Ground Zero for Little Kings. They started out in the late 50’s in Cincinnati, moved to my general neck of the woods for a few years (Frederick, MD), up to Wilkes-Barre, PA, a couple more, then came home back to Cincinnati. Brand, breweries, and company ownership have changed hands a few times since the beginning, but the ale bottles and brewing process have stayed the same. It’s almost become a craft or boutique beer in recent years and it’s hard to find, but it’s still out there.
