A. Gettelman Brewing Company workers in the early 1900s. The Dictionary of Wisconsin Biography has this to say about Adam Gettelman and the brewery: 'He began his apprenticeship in the brewing business in 1865, and in 1871 was admitted to partnership in the Menominee Brewery, owned by his father-in-law, George Schweikhart. In 1876 Gettelman became sole proprietor, and in 1887 incorporated the business, which was known as the A. Gettelman Brewing Co. after 1904.' Gettelman's was acquired by the Miller Brewing Company in 1961. Photo courtesy of Miller Brewing Company.
