And before that, Meister Brau (actually Peter Hand) purchased the process of making light beer (patented by Hershel Gablinger) from Rheingold Brewing in 1966, who made the first true light beer. It was made in New Bedford Mass, at the old Dawson's Brewery, under the name Forrest Brewing Company. It was called Gablinger's Beer. But Rheingold did not use the name "Lite". Still, Gablinger's was the first real "light" beer to use that formula.
This is one of your best videos yet, Ken. I love how you walked around and talked with the different vendors. Also I really liked how you included more of the raw sound of the show. Feels like I'm standing there at the show. Cheers to another episode 🍻
Thank you much. I recently picked up a go pro and wanted to make beer shows more of a virtual "The Beer Show Point of View" Experience. I still have more to learn, but I'll get there. Thanks for the encouragement.
The people who design & their marketing talent on these beer ads I bet, never in their life's could imagine their works is appreciated / love by us is. so underappreciated by average person who is not a collector. Cheers🍺🍺🍺
Agree - I also find it interesting how much text were in ads long ago - like they had to explain their product. I guess people had enough attention span back then to read copy in ads.
Ken, you were correct in your original comment that Lite from Miller was introduced in 1973. It was marketed in several smaller areas of the country and went national in 1975. Check out the Matt Snell "Lite" commercial which is from late 1973.
Well did anyone notice your hands free video ? Someone got a new Christmas gift I bet. I've watched this TH-cam Video a few times and I'm sure I would have gone home with a few things . Nice job ---- your becoming a pro at this.
Newbie here in S. Korea. Not sure if I'm paying too much on ebay. Enjoying the purchases anyway. If there are any more reasonable sites, let me know. Thanks!
Welcome to the Channel! Sometimes you find some good prices on eBay and sometimes they are high. The only other sites I know about would be auction sites as well. I think if you like the item and are willing to pay that price - have fun with it.
Another great video, can't wait to get up to Onalaska for the big show in May.
Thanks and see you in Onalaska!!
Meister Brau "Lite"was bought by Miller.
It sure was. One of my favorite Origin Stories.

Thanks. I knew I got 1973 from somewhere.
Yes, Meister Brau Lite is Miller lite
History is sure interesting sometimes.
