TYVM for the film that's a treasure for sure. Films like this are more than what they convey but a true testament of years gone by that have to be remembered. A truly bipartisan effort going on there folks.

Well done, thanks for sharing

This is fucking awesome! I love Hamm's!!!!

This was really good. Enjoyed.

What an amazing ending. To me, it should be the start of a movie about Gaia herself

They let the old brewery become an abandoned ruin. Jacob Schmidt was brewmaster early on there in Swede Hallow. This was just before they thought of the Bear adds. Looks like about 1953 to me, what a cool time for our country.

Back when the beer was in St Paul Minnesota now it's brewed in Milwaukee at the Miller brewery I wasn't around when it was brewed in St Paul Minnesota nice video Hamm's the beer refreshment

Born and raised across the tracks from the grain elevators. Played many ball games in the malthouse parking lot and knew several water fountains around the property. St. Paul Brewery occupies the old brewhouse portion of the site.

Love this beer. An old original classic that naturally tastes better than all these yuppie micro brews being made today. Cheers Hamm's. Glad this beer has been found in Rhode Island.

Sometimes I wonder how close hamms today tastes compared to them. It must be close.

Hamms is the best

What year is the video?

Love this vid. However, some of it I don't understand. They refer to Theo Hamm sought the "Sky Blue Water" and from what I've read, Theo Hamm knew very little on how to brew beer. However in this film they make it sound like he was the brew master. But I guess that's how they paid homage to the man who got it all started.

I know right. Its crazy how the place was bustling at one point only to be neglected and left to decay. I could say it was the Hamm's family who decided to sell the company at the height of popularity but then everyone else didnt know what to do with the brand and the brewery itself went into disarray.

From what I could make out at the end this was produced around 1958. Everything looked shiny and up to date, even the trucks at the end looked new. Not much left but the remaining buildings these days. I believe the micro brew Flat Earth Brewing is using part of them today.

Beers like Hamm's, Schlitz and PBR were well on their way out in the late 70's and early 80's before craft beers ever got rolling in America. However, PBR made quite a comeback over the last 10-15 years. Not a bad beer, really.
