Mark W. Rummel posted this photo on September 8, 2012 in the Facebook Group “You know you are from Sebewaing, MI when …”.  He said “Here are four unused bottle cap / cork crowns from three old (original, good recipe) Sebewaing Beer brands, plus P.O.M. — Pride of Michigan — which the “new owners” formulated and which helped close down the Brewery at the end…”

Here are the comments from the post:

Mark W Rummel Forgot to add… these are for sale today on eBay, if you’d like to own a little hometown history…

Janet Fuerst Reithel I bought labels of Golden Pheasant, Club Lager and Sport Beer today from a vendor at Fall Family Days at the Thumb Octagon Barn. They also had for the upper left label but already have some of them.

Susan Kotenko Harman I remember walking home past the brewery as a kid, it was already closed by then.

Thank you to Mark W. Rummel for posting the photo and all of those who took the time to comment in Facebook.

Mark W. Rummel posted this photo on May 23, 2012 in the Facebook Group “You know you are from Sebewaing, MI when …”.  He said “Here’s the “Pride of Michigan” label, also known as “POM” which was produced from about 1964 until the brewery closed, in 1965.

The “new owners” started this, to upgrade the Sebewaing Beer image. They didn’t even want to use the Sebewaing name, saying it’s the Michigan Brewery, in Huron County, MI… Big mistake, and it helped lead to the end…”

Here is the only comment from the post:

Doug Rook I’ve heard many a Sebewaing hater joke about the beer being called pheasant piss. Then someone started the POM label and claim that it comes from, of all places, “urine” county.
