Series: 1. Brewery Records (Milwaukee, Wis.)
: The Brewery Records constitute the largest portion of the collection. These records are
from the Milwaukee Brewery office, where central business operations were headquartered.
This part of the collection consists of day to day bookkeeping records that document
many individual transactions involved in running the business, and are useful for
understanding the complicated nature of the brewing industry, as well as nineteenth
century accounting practices. Of particular interest are the brewer's stamp registers
and the denatured alcohol report which show how restrictions on the manufacturing of
alcohol gradually grew more strict until National Prohibition became law on January 16,
1920. City customer shipped inventory ledgers give the names of many Milwaukee citizens
and businesses that were dealt with Blatz during this period. Finally, the inventory
ledgers provide incredibly detailed information about property owned by the brewery,
including advertising materials used by branches and customers.
