Schlitz Malt Liquor 14 Oz Tab Top Can

Longview 14-Ounce Malt Liquor Can

Manufactured with mandatory brewery markings identifying the Jos. Schlitz Brewing Company facility in Longview, Texas, this 14-ounce tab top can highlights the regional packaging strategy deployed by Schlitz across southern markets. While canned malt liquor was predominantly packaged in standard 12-ounce or 16-ounce volumes, 14-ounce containers were produced to satisfy specific regional market niches and pricing tiers.

The exterior display features the prominent Schlitz Malt Liquor charging bull emblem set against bold graphic lettering and clear notation of the 14 fluid ounce measurement. Mandatory text along the can margins designates the Jos. Schlitz brewing plant in Longview, a major packaging hub established to support distribution throughout Texas and surrounding territories.

Odd-sized containers tied to specific manufacturing plants are a dedicated focus among breweriana collectors. Known variations of this can feature differences in mandatory city text formatting, state tax declarations, and embossed versus non-embossed bull logo artwork.
