Description

1867-1951
Peter Schoenhofen bought out out his partner’s interest in 1867, renaming their brewery the Peter Schoenhofen Brewing Company. Its most popular product was Edelweiss beer (see advertisement below). After Prohibition, the company reopened (1933) under the name Schoenhofen-Edelweiss Company. In 1951, the company began using the name Dewery’s Ltd. after a buyout by the latter in the late 1940s.
