Wisconsin Breweries History: Joseph Huber Brewery

The Joseph Huber Brewery started in 1845 3 years before the Wisconsin Territory became a state. The brewery changed hands several times as it grew in size and capacity, but it always stuck to the tried and true Old World recipes and brewing techniques. When Bavarian immigrant Joseph Huber arrived in Monroe in 1923, he began work at this brewery which was called The Blumer Brewery.

During Prohibition the Huber Brewery produced a popular "near-beer" called Golden Glow. By 1940, Joe Huber had helped to save the brewery from bankruptcy by organizing an employee stock buyout. He was known for honesty, character, and dedication to brewing only the finest beers.

It was no surprise to anyone when in 1947 Blumer Brewery stockholders voted unanimously to change the name of the brewery to the Joseph Huber Brewing Company. The Huber brewery is the oldest continually operating brewery in the Midwest and the second oldest in the nation.
