Wisconsin Breweries History: Blatz Brewing Company

Valentine Blatz opened his brewery in 1851, and married the widow of his ex-employer in 1852, acquiring Johann Braun's City Brewery in La Crosse, Wisconsin witch was renamed to Blatz. By 1900, Blatz was Milwaukee's third-largest brewery. The Blatz Brewery Complex was bounded by Broadway, Highland, Juneau Avenue and Market Street. Although Blatz Brewing was the first Milwaukee brewer to go national, the Blatz Brewery was forced to close in 1959, and the Blatz label was sold to Pabst. Heileman purchased the Blatz label in 1969 after Pabst's anti-trust problems. In 1996, Stroh's bought Heileman, continuing most of their production.
