Their salaries ranged from $55 to $75 a month, with meals furnished at 6:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m., and 4:00 p.m., and a daily allotment of twenty free beers per man.

  • The Adolphus Busch Glass Factories Bill Lockhart, Pete Schulz, Carol
    The Adolphus Busch Glass Factories Bill Lockhart, Pete Schulz, Bob Brown, Terry Schaub, Carol Serr, and Bill Lindsey [Some of this section was published in Bottles and Extras (Lockhart et al. 2010a).] Adolphus Busch was the son-in-law of Eberhard Anheuser and the driving force behind the Anheuser-Busch Brewery’s success (Hernon & Ganey 1991). He made a number of tremendous advances in brewing history, the most important of which (at least from a bottle research standpoint) was employing Pasteurization to the beer-making process. This, in 1872, allowed for the long-range shipping of beer and, coupled with the use of refrigerated railroad cars (also pioneered by Busch), accounted for the spread of lager beer across the American West and internationally. Busch was also highly interested in beer bottles. Plavchan (1969:75), a historian researching Anheuser-Busch, discussed the series of glass houses used by Anheuser-Busch in its quest for sufficient bottles to keep up with its beer distribution. To maintain the increase in beer production, Anheuser-Busch even imported bottles from Germany.1 Because of this increasing need for bottles, Adolphus Busch became involved in bottle production, becoming one of the principals in the Streator Bottle & Glass Co. and possibly other glass houses. Of interest to us, Adolphus Busch also formed a series of companies to manufacture bottles for the brewery. Histories Adolphus Busch Glass Co., Belleville, Illinois (1886-1892) Adolphus Busch Glass Co., St. Louis, Missouri (1891-1892) In 1886, Adolphus Busch bought the Belleville Glass Works (Jones 1968:11; Toulouse 1971:26). It was first listed in the city directories as the Adolphus Busch Glass Works in 1887.

Die Rede ist von DEM Bierimperium schlechthin: Anheuser-Busch InBev SA – kurz AB InBev. Quelle: AB InBev Als unangefochtener Weltmarktführer braute der belgisch-brasilianische Konzern mit Sitz im belgischen Löwen allein im Jahr 2019 über 561 Millionen Hektoliter Bier.

  • Rheingold Case
    Case Number : MKT03-02 Date: May 2003 Rheingold Beer “This is a classic brand, not a retro brand” – Tom Bendheim, CEO Rheingold Beer In early May 2003, Tom Bendheim, CEO sat in his office staring out the window at his company’s billboards at the corners of Houston Street and Avenue B in New York City’s Lower East Side. Faced with the task of trying to reinvigorate what was once “New York’s beer”, he wondered if the Rheingold brand could enjoy the same popularity it once experienced almost half a century earlier. As the newly minted CEO of Rheingold beer he was confident that he could make this brand come alive once again. He had done it with other products, why not this one? However, the beer industry was a mature, and highly competitive market. As he headed out the door to meet a prospective new client who he hoped would begin to sell Rheingold beer, Tom grappled with a number of issues, not knowing which to direct his attention to first. The History of Rheingold Beer Rheingold beer traces its roots (Exhibit 1) back to 1840 in Ludwigsburg, Germany where the company’s founder, Samuel Liebman (original spelling: Liebmann)1 founded the Liebman Brewery. In 1850, Joseph Liebman, Samuel’s eldest son, immigrated to the US to escape political persecution in Germany. Upon arrival in the US, Joseph bought a small brewery in Brooklyn, NY thus establishing a “home base” for the rest of the family when they emigrated from Germany. When the family realized that they could compete in New York’s competitive beer market, they built an even larger brewery on the corner of Forest and Bremen Street in Brooklyn.

    For more information, contact: Joe Muehlenkamp, 314-577-7528 [email protected] THE WORLD-FAMOUS BUDWEISER CLYDESDALES: A SPECIAL BREED IS BORN A look into the rich, colorful history of the special Clydesdale breed begins in the early 19th century, along the River Clyde in Lanarkshire, Scotland. The region, located in a valley, or “dale,” was known for its rich soil and abundant crops. The farmers were in great need of strong horses for hauling, plowing, and carting all the necessary farm equipment and workers. One of the Dukes of Hamilton, a local, wealthy landowner, imported six Great Flemish Horses, a breed that already had been regularly shipped to Scotland to be used as war horses and for farm work. The Duke made his six prize horses available for breeding to local mares and the Clydesdale breed was born. People from outside Lanarkshire began to refer to the big, powerful horses as “the Clydesman’s horse,” a name that eventually became “Clydesdale.” The early Clydesdales quickly garnered attention as a breed more powerful than any breed available before. The horses were said to be capable of pulling loads heavier than a ton at a walking speed of five miles per hour. It was the breed’s hauling power and confident style that attracted the interest of North Americans. In fact, in the early days of brewing, it was said that a brewer’s success was directly related to how far his draft horses could pull a load in one day. Today’s Budweiser Clydesdales are even bigger than their Scottish ancestors.
