Phillip Bernair (left) and Sebastian Aigner sample the final product at the Cleveland Home Brewing Company before placing the beer in waiting kegs. The Cleveland Home Brewing Company was founded in 1907 by Ernst W. Mueller. Its brewery was located at 2501 East 61st Street, near Outhwaite Avenue. Mueller, a German immigrant, had previously owned the Cleveland Brewing Company, which merged with the Cleveland & Sandusky Brewing Company in 1897. The Cleveland Home Brewing Company was perhaps best known for its "Black Forest Beer" based on the Mueller Family's own formula. Sales declined at the company following World War II, however, and it closed in 1952. | Date: 1934 | Source: Cleveland State University Library Special CollectionsDownload Original File
