Born and raised in Berks, I am fascinated by the design, architecture, culture & style of the 20th century. I started this website to research and build a collection of the places, things and stories I have heard about my entire life. Read more here.
I remember it well
I remember the signs, but not the location. Could someone please post the location? Thank You!
This is an awesome site
I have a can opener with the logo on it. It’s a retractable bottle/can opener. Pretty cool.
Sunshine Brewery I believe it was located along the river off of Schuylkill Ave. What was the address?
As a kid, we use to eat at a bar restaurant called the Willow across or down the street from the brewery back in the early 1960s
My father started the daily brew at 4am every morning.
