When I was in Milwaukee a few years ago none of the bars or beverage stores I tried had heard of Schlitz.

When I check the only major outlet was LA. I’ve also read that the original recipe was lost.

“ I’ve also read that the original recipe was lost.”

I did a very little digging, and learned that the recipe was, in fact, recreated, using brewing records that had survived. That might have occurred closer to 2000.
