 Comments:

From the Collection of Mark Rogers.  Attributed to Prohibition, however this iteration of the brewery went out of business in 1918, two years before prohibition.  This beer was potentially brewed in advance of prohibition as many brewers did as they readied for the upcoming business environment.
