**Katie Leinenkugel** has been named president of Jacob **Leinenkugel Brewing Co**., succeeding **Tony Bugher**, her cousin. 

She's the second woman to lead the company; her ancestor Susan Leinenkugel was the first in 1927\. The company is owned by Molson Coors, which closed its Chippewa Falls brewery. The family tried to buy it back but wasn't successful.
