Algonquin Brewing Co. – CT 8j

Algonquin Brewing Co. opened in 1933 and closed in 1934 it was open for 1 years. Since it was only open for a short period of time items for this brewery can be accurately dated and are likely to be rarer than normal This listing was active during Prohibition which makes it an oddity. Some breweries were able to stay in business by producing "near-beer" which was very low alcohol, some switched over to bottling sodas or other beverages, some became Ice-houses or other related businesses. Algonquin Brewing Co. was in an active brewing city. Ansonia, CT was listed as having 15 breweries, which is quite a few. Sometimes a large number of breweries can lead to an active collecting community that will be willing to pay more for breweriana items than other collectors.

• Other Notes: Brewery was licensed, but never actually Brewed Alcoholic Beverages
