This is a picture of my vintage beer sign from the thirties or fourties! It's advertising Golden Glow beer which was produced in Wisconsin. The brewery that made Golden Glow beer is now Huber Brewery.
I emailed Huber to see what they could tell me and here is my answer:
Jerry,
The sign comes from way back when the Brewery was owned by Adam Blumer. Our history is on our website and gives you a time line, ect. Wow
those signs are very rare. We have one in our gift shop and lots of
tourists ask for it and about it. I would hang on to that although if you don't want it you could check the web for breweriana buyers and see what it is
worth.
Thanks for inquiring
Kathy
Please take a few minutes and visit Dene's Place, our t-shirt and button shop. We offer a lot of original designs that you can't find anywhere else.
A Little About Beer
Beer is the world's oldest and most popular alcoholic beverage. It is produced by the fermentation of sugars derived from starch-based material-the most common being malted barley; however wheat, corn, and rice are also widely used, usually in conjunction with the barley. Less widely used starch sources include millet, sorghum and cassava root in Africa, potato in Brazil, and agave in Mexico.The starch source is steeped in water, along with certain enzymes, to produce a sugary wort which is then flavoured with herbs, fruit or most commonly hops. Yeast is then used to cause fermentation, which produces alcohol and other waste products from anaerobic respiration of the sugars.
Beer uses varying ingredients, production methods and traditions. The type of yeast and production method may be used to classify beer into ale, lager and spontaneously fermented beers. Some beer writers and organisations differentiate and categorise beers by various factors into beer styles. Alcoholic beverages fermented from non starch sources such as grape juice (wine) or honey (mead), and distilled beverages are not classified as beer.

A Little About Beer Cans
I don't think that it's possible to have a site about beer collectables without mentioning beer cans!Collecting beer cans can be an inexpensive hobby and I've seen many basement walls devoted to shelves full of them. It would not be possible for me to list or picture all of the different cans here, so I'll refer you to the
Beer Can Museum and Beer Can Hall of Fame!
You'll find lots of pictures and beer can information on their site.

- The Bear Can Museum in Boston looks like a great place to visit. The next time I'm in Boston I want to check it out with some of my beer buddies. Thanks for doing a great job with this lens.

I enjoy collecting! It doesn't really seem to matter what it is, if it's old I'll hang on to it. So, most of my lenses are about collecting.
