What is breweriana?
Breweriana is virtually anything with a brewer’s name on it. There’s obvious stuff like cans, bottles, bottle caps, labels, tap knobs, glassware , steins, trays, openers bar towels, coasters and signs. There’s pre-Prohibition stuff like porcelain stoppers, barrel bungs, wooden cases, embossed bottles and “growler” pails. And then there’s stuff you might not even think of, like sheet music (“Under the Anheuser Bush”), tapes of radio and TV commercials and brewery stock certificates. It’s all breweriana and it’s all collectible.
