Who first bottled beer in the us?

Answer 1

Following repeal of the Volstead Act, the first permit to legally produce beer was issued to "Papa Joe" Griesedieck, who offered bottled beer on April 7, 1933 under the Falstaff bramd. The company traced its roots to 1848, when Adam Lemp started brewing beer in St. Louis; most breweries made ale, not beer. Although Falstaff was still popular in the 1960s - the 3th largest in the US - but mismanagement led to falling sales, and the lasr Falstaff brewery close in 1990.

Beer had been bottled in the british isles since the 1600s, but the corks were wired down like champagne is. Bottled beer was produced in the colonies before the US existed, with bottles scarce and expensive, The first to bottle beer under a crown cap was probably William Painter, who patented the crown cap in 1892.
