Thera Heck Harder Great condition and find

Judy Terrill Clarence just y me that you had to have a church key to open these. No pop tops and no twists

Judy Terrill just reminded me

Lori Fisher So the cans are full?

Karen Wasserman No these are empty

Vince Haag Nice!

William Harder Nice

Mark W Rummel At one time (while the Brewery was still open, so maybe it was 1960 or so) they were removing a bathroom wall at The Blade Office (now Jackie’s Upholstery) and there were maybe 50 tan cans in the wall. Apparently some printers would slip into the bathroom with a can, drink it, and drop it in between the studs in the wall. We threw them out, but wish we would have kept them now!

Mark W Rummel @Judy T, when they finally got around to having a pop top on the blue cans, about 1963, they were called “Zip and Sip” and it was another expensive addition for our little brewery. Soon after, short-neck non-return bottles were also added, with screw-off caps.

William Harder If they have no rust on them they go for eighty dollars a piece, blue ones with no rust go for one hundred and fifty dollars

Thank you to Karen Wasserman for posting the photo and all of those who took the time to comment in Facebook.

If you want to create a login account on the website, check out “Submission” at the top of the page for instructions so you can add blog articles of your own. The site is brand new as of this month and any help from those who know about the brewery history would help the site. sebewaingbrewingcompany.com Please dig into your handed down or personal photo archives to see what you can find. If I only had taken more pictures when I lived next door to it!”

Angela Neuman Moloney Tim Neuman and Thomas Neuman, I’m sure you’ll want to see this…

Mark W Rummel Very cool. Thanks for sharing. And there’s your Grandpa Otto Thede’s house, on the east edge of that property, shown as a “residence.”
