One Thousand Natural Process Beer Flat Top Can

A. Gettelman's "One Thousand" Beer Can

This flat-top beer can showcases the "One Thousand" Natural Process Beer from the A. Gettelman Brewing Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The brewery, known for its commitment to quality ingredients, famously offered a $1,000 reward to anyone who could prove their beer contained anything other than pure barley malt and hops. This can is a testament to Gettelman's brewing heritage and its innovative approach to beer packaging. The imagery on this can is likely representative of the era's design aesthetic. The A. Gettelman Brewing Company, established in 1856, played a significant role in Milwaukee's brewing history, known for its innovations in packaging and advertising. They were eventually acquired by the Miller Brewing Company in 1961. While details on the specific artwork might vary slightly across different examples, the 'One Thousand' branding and its historical significance are consistent across these cans.
