Burger Light Beer 12 Oz Tab Top Can

Hudepohl's Burger Light Tab Top

The Burger brand holds an iconic place in Cincinnati brewing heritage. Originally produced by the Burger Brewing Company—renowned for its decades-long sponsorship of Cincinnati Reds baseball broadcasts at Crosley Field—the label transitioned to longtime local rival Hudepohl Brewing Company following Burger's closure in the 1970s.

Under Hudepohl's stewardship, the classic Cincinnati name was sustained and adapted to evolving industry trends, including the introduction of a low-calorie alternative under the Burger Light banner. This 12-ounce tab top can features the Hudepohl Brewing Company mandatory text from Cincinnati, Ohio, capturing an important period of Midwestern brewing consolidation when historic local labels were kept alive under new regional management.

For breweriana collectors focusing on Ohio and regional brand lineages, this can marks an interesting crossover chapter between two of Cincinnati’s most storied brewing institutions. Documented variations among these cans include differences in metallic composition—such as steel bodies versus all-aluminum constructions—as well as minor shifts in typography and layout across separate production batches.
