Iron City Brewing Company - China Wafer Type Butterfly Valve - Sanitary Butterfly Valve by jekky
history in 1861, a young german immigrant, edward frauenheim, started the iron city brewery, one of the first american breweries to produce a lager, in the bustling river port known at the time as the "smoky city." this founder of frauenheim, miller & company started brewing iron city beer, now the flagship of the iron city (pbc), in a city thriving on heavy industry and commerce. by 1866, the brewery had begun to grow. the business outgrew its original facilities on 17th street and moved into a four-story brick building that the company built at liberty avenue and 34th street, then worth an estimated $250,000. just three years later, iron city brewery erected an additional three-story building at the site, where pbc operates to this day. the two buildings, carrying an average stock of about 10,000 barrels, used state-of-the-art brewing equipment. at the time, 25 of the operation's 30 skilled workmen were employed full-time, and iron city brewery continued to expand its markets to become the largest brewery in pittsburgh. old german label after the 1866 expansion, leopold vilsack, a pittsburgh native who learned the brewer trade at pittsburgh old bennett brewery, joined frauenheim, miller & company. the young man later became a partner, investing his small wealth in the firm when miller retired and another partner died. iron city brewery then became frauenheim and vilsack company. frauenheim and vilsack fame spread throughout the brewing industry across the country, as the company had built one of the most complete and extensive breweries in the united states. with a brewing capacity of about 50,000 barrels a year, the iron city brewery was an impressive operation, able to compete favorably in sales with any brewery west of the atlantic coast area. historians and newspapers were amazed that a brewery could be so big. the total value of iron city, including everything from stock to raw materials, was about $150,000 an unheard of sum for a brewery. by 1886, the iron city brewery had about 500 reception casks, each up to 60 ft (18 m) in circumference and 20 ft (6.1 m) in height, each of which held 45 to 50 barrels of beer. and, the brewery had about 10,000 kegs in constant use, evidence that serving its client base was no small job. regional trust during the latter part of the 19th century, trusts became the business vogue, and industries began to merge or form trusts to achieve stability through size and take advantage of economies of scale. the brewing industry was no exception. on february 3, 1899, the pittsburgh dispatch reported that 12 local brewing firms applied to transfer their license to the trust known as pittsburgh : wainwright , phoenix , keystone , winter brothers , phillip lauer, john h. nusser, ebhardt & ober , hippely & sons, ober , j. seiferth brothers, straub , and the iron city . in addition to these 12 pittsburgh and allegheny county breweries, nine breweries outside the county took part in the merger. in all, 21 breweries joined to make pittsburgh the largest brewing operation in pennsylvania and the third largest in the country. the combined facilities, worth about $11 million, provided a capacity of more than one million barrels. greater efficiencies and more modern equipment made it practical to close many of the 21 breweries shortly after the incorporation without relinquishing capacities. an old german poster prohibition, starting in 1920, forced many breweries, distillers and taverns to close, yet pittsburgh survived. one of only 725 american breweries left when the movement was repealed in april 1933, pbc produced soft drinks, ice cream and 'near beer' and ran a cold storage business to endure those years. the brewery creative efforts kept alive a pittsburgh tradition and foreshadowed future innovations that would again restore security in times of struggle. post-prohibition in the 1970s, the pittsburgh acquired the queen city (1901-1976) of cumberland, maryland. the queen city was also known as the old german and included the cumberland (1890-1958), which was purchased by the brewery in 1958. at its peak, the queen city brewery produced over 250,000 barrels of beer a year in cumberland. the company prospered during the 1950s and 1960s; however, labor disputes and declining sales caused the queen city to close in december, 1974, transferring its old german, old export, heritage house, old dutch, brown derby, gamecock ale, and american brands to the pittsburgh . the queen city brewery was demolished in april, 1975, ending a combined 152 years of brewing in cumberland maryland. cumberland motif by 1977, pittsburgh was one of just 40 breweries left in the country. to rebound from difficult years, the brewery introduced a new light beer, branded as iron city lightr ic light. ic light's aggressive marketing campaign targeted the young discerning beer drinker. both men and women enjoyed the new beer, which quickly captured 80 percent of the local light-beer market. ic light popularity apparently also heightened the sales of regular iron city beer, as it soon regained the position of southwestern pennsylvania favorite beer. a current pint-bottle of iron city, accompanied by a cat. in 1986, pittsburgh was acquired by (and merged with) bond brewing holdings ltd. of perth, western australia. but, seven years later, the company's owner, alan bond, suffering financially, gave up the brewery to pittsburgh entrepreneur michael carlow. when carlow was forced to relinquish control of the brewery because of pittsburgh national city bank allegations of fraud (allegations which subsequently led to carlow's imprisonment for fraud), pittsburgh native joseph piccirilli gained ownership of the brewery. the investment group piccirilli represents, keystone , closed the $29.4 million purchase september 12, 1995, at a hearing in u.s. bankruptcy court, showing a new commitment to pittsburgh 's products. piccirilli proved dedicated to moving the brewery into the 21st century. his youthful enthusiasm prompted many new ideas, most notably the aluminum bottle. however, his lack of experience led to a sharp decline in sales (pbc had been hovering around the 1 million barrel production mark, even through rough financial times). after producing fewer than 400,000 barrels in 2005, and being late on a number of bills, pittsburgh filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy. a can of old german purchased in dec. 2009; interestingly it bears iron city's name paired with city brewing's address. brand relaunch in 2007, the brewery was purchased and brought out of bankruptcy by unified growth partners. they renamed the brewery to its original name of "iron city " and hope to return it to full production and overcome the numerous shortcomings of the formerly neglected business. in may 2009, iron city brewing signed a deal with the city to begin producing beer at their former latrobe plant, with brewing started in june and bottling/kegging production resumed in july, 2009. products iron city 's most popular products are: iron city beer (a macro-style pilsner), i.c light, augustiner and augustiner dark. pbc also produces: american, american light, american ice, old german, brigade and brigade light. other brands include drummond bros., wiedemann and drewrys, which were acquired from the evansville (evansville, indiana) in the late 1990s and today are largely shipped to midwestern markets such as louisville, ky, cincinnati, oh and southern indiana. circa 1895 embossed bottle. innovations first snap-top can, produced in conjunction with alcoa, 1962. first twist-off resealable cap, 1963. first brewery to print scenes honoring local sports teams and individuals. first "draught" beer available in a can, iron city. first malt cooler, hop-n-gator (sued for trademark infringement by gatorade and ceased production). first brewer to use the aluminum beer bottle on a large scale, produced in conjunction with alcoa, 2005. according to alcoa, the bottle has three times the aluminum of typical cans, giving it better insulation. the maker claims the bottle keeps beer cold up to 50 minutes longer. it is also lighter than glass, unbreakable, resealable, and is coated to prevent the aluminum from affecting the taste. references ^ [ http://postgazette.com/pg/09162/976713-100.stm] ^ "edward frauenheim a young german immigrant formed iron city in 1861, when pittsburgh was establishing itself as an industrial superpower." ^ amanda paul, tom robertson, joe weaver, "cumberland", arcadia publishing, copyright oct 1, 2003, paperback, isbn 0-7385-1498-5, page 46. ^ baron, jennifer. iron city opens for business, invests $4.1m in modernization, pop city, september 26, 2007. accessed september 26, 2007. ^ "goodbye, iron city: latrobe's gain is pittsburgh's loss". the pittsburghchannel. june 11, 2009. http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/money/19719831/detail.html. ^ "latrobe brewery reopens to bottle iron city". pittsburgh post-gazette. july 30, 2009. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09211/987167-56.stm. external links official website ratebeer drink iron city 360 panorama of the kettle room v d e pittsburgh-based corporations (within the pittsburgh metro area) fortune 500 corporations u.s. steel ppg h. j. heinz company pnc financial wesco international allegheny technologies consol energy mylan laboratories fortune 1000 corporations allegheny energy dick's sporting goods kennametal american eagle outfitters atlas america forbes largest private companies 84 lumber gnc giant eagle externally owned, regionally based, and other pittsburgh corporations american bridge ampco pittsburgh ansys bayer usa calgon carbon chemadvisor, inc. compunetix dollar bank dqe holdings eat'n park edmc federated investors fedex ground glaxosmithkline guru.com highmark igate koppers michael baker mine safety appliances nova chemicals oxford development iron city brewing company ptc alliance respironics rue21 university of pittsburgh medical center vocelli pizza vivisimo wabtec westinghouse electric company outside companies with strong pittsburgh relations bny mellon (formerly mellon financial) dreyfus corporation alcoa eaton corporation categories: companies based in pittsburgh, pennsylvania | beer based in pittsburgh, pennsylvania | beer brewing companies based in pennsylvania | companies established in 1961 | pittsburgh history & landmarks foundation historic landmarkshidden categories: articles needing additional references from october 2009 | all articles needing additional references | pennsylvania articles missing geocoordinate data | all articles needing coordinates
