1988 Budweiser Old School House 1988 Budweiser "National Historical Lanmark Series" Old School House Stein. This hand-crafted ceramic stein depicting the famed Old School House building is another in the National Historic Landmark series developed by Anheuser-Busch to commemorate its rich history and long tradition of quality and excellence. With exacting detail, the stein portrays the world-renowned Budweiser® Clydesdale eight-horse hitch passing before the Old School House building. The 3-story, 12-room structure, originally known as Lyon School, was constructed for the City of St. Louis in 1868. Named after Captain Nathaniel Lyon — Commander of Union forces in Missouri during the Civil War — the school served the southern and western portions of St. Louis, accommodating up to 700 students, including each of the children of Adolphus Busch. By the early 1900's, the City of St. Louis no longer needed Lyon School. With an eye toward preserving the charm and grace of the building's exterior, Adolphus Busch purchased the school from the city in 1907 and converted it to the brewery's central office. Since then, it has served as the main administration building for Anheuser-Busch, Inc., housing each succeeding President of the corporation. Following his appointment as President, in fact, August A. Busch, Sr. had his office in the same room where he attended class at Lyon School as a child. The Budweiser Clydesdales have been an instantly recognizable symbol of Anheuser-Busch for more than half a century. Seen each year by millions throughout America, they are a highly-visible example of the pride Anheuser-Busch has in its past, and the care the corporation takes to preserve its history and traditions.Yuengling Brewery Yuengling Brewery

Brütül, the Brütül Shell, Lagerhead, Foam Follows Function and Black and Tan Kit are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Brütül, Inc. in the U.S. and/or other countries. The Lagerhead Turtle is protected by domestic and international patents.
LAGERHEAD FOUNDATION (Brutul)Bill Arnold, Brütül's founder, has extensive experience in the restoration and preservation of aquatic environments, both as a scientist/project manager, and as marketing director for a leading consultancy in the field. Bill has participated in several projects around the U.S. to restore habitat for salmon, trout and other aquatic species indigenous to the particular area. For the ornamental design of the Lagerhead® Turtle, we looked at dozens of turtle and tortoise photographs, and researched the behavior of large, aggressive turtles like the alligator snapping turtle (Macroclemys temminicki) pictured here. This allowed us to incorporate features of the actual turtles into the design of the tool (shell pattern, claws, head shape, etc.). As we learned more about the nature of the alligator snapper, and its plight as an endangered species, we saw an opportunity to link our corporate interests with our “naturalist” interests, and started the Lagerhead Foundation. The Lagerhead Foundation is a charitable offshoot of Brütül that is organized to help us review and fund projects to help the turtles. We keep a growing list of scientists and project coordinators from around the country who have a specific interest in turtle/tortoise research and habitat work. Some of these individuals are with non-profit groups; most work for state or federal water resource and wildlife agencies. Our goal is to work through this network to identify and prioritize projects for the Lagerhead Foundation. We are also building a semi-formal advisory group to help evaluate proposals and projects. In the early going, our objective is to focus primarily on research or planning level projects that provide good return on a modest investment. For example, we are working to fund translation services to help foreign turtle scientists publish their research in Western journals. It is said that the body of knowledge related to endangered turtle habitat can be exponentially expanded simply by facilitating the sharing of information between scientists on different continents (translation). We’d like to bring partners to the table to help fund larger projects “on the ground”. For example, a corporate sponsor (beer brewer or wholesaler, large retailer, large non-profit) could help us purchase water rights, secure a conservation easement for sensitive tract of land slated for development, or help fund an restoration effort. Please contact us if you have additional questions about the Lagerhead Foundation, or if you are interested in participating in a project. We know there are numerous opportunities out there to help the turtles and the other creatures that depend on diverse aquatic habitats.Melbourn Bros William Brown Edwards established the basis for the present brewery in 1825. Edwards and his family ran the brewery until 1857, when Frederick George Phillips, who, in turn, was followed by Elmer Brown in 1859, succeeded them. The business bought by Herbert Wells Melbourn in 1869 was therefore already well established and successful. Though small by the standards of London or Burton-on-Trent, the size of the brewery and its trade was about average for the country as a whole. The establishment suffered a fire in 1876 and had to be rebuilt. When it was rebuilt, the most modern brewing methods of the day were employed, including a coal-fired boiler, and the new plant was called Melbourn Bros. Steam Beer Brewery. Melbourn Bros. was operated until the late 1970s, when it was decided that the plant was too old and inefficient. During the years of operation, as is the custom in England, the brewery's majority of customers were its own "tied" pubs in and around Stamford. In 1994 Melbourn Bros. decided that their beer would be brewed in an ancient British tradition, with fresh fruits as seasoning. (Only as recently as the Middle Ages has the hop been used as a beer seasoning and preservative.) At that time, old fashioned construction, wooden tanks, and other hard-to-clean surfaces would otherwise have been considered a liability. Instead these were turned into an asset: the brewery would make an ideal facility in which to brew spontaneously fermented beer. Today, with 15,000 inhabitants, Stamford is a living museum, and a visit is a step back in time. Students of architecture can see Saxon, Danish and Norman buildings. The mellow stone buildings, both private and municipal, range from medieval to the 18th century. In addition to beautiful buildings Stamford offers churches, museums, shops, pubs, hotels, bed-and breakfasts and a nice public garden next to the river. It is a great place to explore, with delightful surprises around every corner.
Founding of the Hofbrauhaus
 1589 Wilhelm V., Duke of Bavaria (1579 – 1597), had a thirsty and demanding royal household, which was dissatisfied with the beer brewed in Munich. As a result, beer had to be imported to Munich from the city of Einbeck in Lower Saxony. Wilhelm ordered his royal court to come up with a way to reconcile cost and pleasure. On September 27, 1589, the chamberlains and council members, C. Strabl, A. Amasmeyr, S. Prew and G. Griesmair, approached him with an idea: why not build their own brewery? Wilhelm welcomed the plan with open arms. As a matter of fact, that same day, he recruited the master brewer of the Geisenfeld Monastery, Heimeran Pongraz, to be the planner, developer and the first “brown” Hofbräuhaus’ master brewer, which went into operation at the “Alter Hof” ( Old Court ) in 1592. It was called the “brown” Hofbräuhaus as only brown ale was brewed there.
HB Brews Wheat Beer 1602
 Wilhelm’s son and successor, Duke Maximilian I., had a somewhat different taste in beer. He did not particularly enjoy the heavy brown ale, which was the most popular “barley juice” at the time. Not only was Maximilian a gourmet, he was also an extremely clever businessman when it came to finances and marketing. Without much ado, he simply forbade all other private brewing sites from brewing wheat beer, thereby securing a wheat beer monopoly for himself and his ducal Hofbräuhaus. This not only meant a considerable source of income for the ducal court, but also nearly 400 years of experience in brewing wheat beer for HB in Munich
Relocation of the Brewery 1607
 It is not easy being successful! The wheat beer of Maximilian I enjoyed such enormous sales that the brewery at the Old Court could not keep up with demand. The stately volume of 38,000 gallons (1,444 hectolitres) of beer brewed at the ducal Hofbräuhaus in 1605 - a veritable ocean of beer for those times - was simply not enough anymore. Maximilian decided to move wheat beer production and ordered that the new “white” Hofbräuhaus be built at “Platzl,” a small square not far from the court, where the Hofbräuhaus still stands today. It was called the “white” Hofbräuhaus because exclusively white (or wheat) beer was brewed there. Carlsberg BreweryIn 1847 in Valby, a small hill town overlooking Copenhagen, Captain J.C.Jacobsen launched Denmark’s first lager beer, Carlsberg. The beer was named after Jacobsen’s son ‘Carl’ and the ‘berg’ meaning 'on a hill'. The Carlsberg Research Centre A contributing factor to Carlsberg’s famous premium quality, its growth and enjoyment and reputation as ‘probably the best beer in the world’ is the ongoing brewing technological advances created by the Carlsberg Research Centre. Set up in 1875, the centre was established to research and pioneer the very latest brewing techniques and technology. Today, with a team of over 1000 scientists dedicated to the art of quality beer making, the Carlsberg Research Centre is not only highly regarded within the international scientific community, but is also an extremely popular development site for young scientists. |
