Hudi? ( short for Hudipohl)

HudEpohl... the beer guys at Crosley Field used to shout out, "Get your ice-coldapohl here!"

The Hudepohl family begat Sam Adams, perhaps as fine a line of beers as you will find on this continent. In fact much of Sam Adams is brewed here in the 'natti at the old Hudepohl factory.

BBC bought and uses the Schoenling brewery. The Hudepohl brewery was shut down 20 years ago when Schoenling bought them out.

Not sure what you mean by begat however. Th Boston Beer Company is not in any way connected with Hudepohl other than buying the brewery from the company that they (Hudepohl) sold out to.

Right you are... I forgot that the old Hudy plant was not at the corner of Liberty and Central Parkway. It was Burger on one corner (Now there was some really bad beer) and Schoenling on the other. Schoenling, or whoever owns the building, still makes Little Kings Cream Ale, a potent brew that can put you flat on your ass if you're not careful.

The Hudepohl family owns a good sized portion of Sam Adams, aka Boston Beer Company according to an article in the Enquirer (Cincinnati, not National) a few years back, but I can't find a reference to it. Here's what Wickipedia has to say... and understand that the Wik is less than a "Gosple true" reference:

The brand was first produced under contract by the Pittsburgh Brewing Company, best known for their Iron City brand of beer. Over the years, the brand has been produced under contract at various brewing facilities with excess capacity, ranging from Stroh breweries, Portland's original Blitz-Weinhard brewery (shuttered in 1999), Cincinnati's Hudepohl-Schoenling brewery (eventually purchased by the Boston Beer Company in early 1997), and industry giant SABMiller. Today, more than 60% of its beer is produced at its very own, newly renovated, Cincinnati brewery. One-third of Samuel Adams beer is still produced under contract at breweries in Rochester, NY and Eden, NC. According to the Company, its own employees, ingredients and brewing processes are utilized at these contract sites. The Boston Beer Company also has a small R&D brewery located in Boston (Jamaica Plain), Massachusetts, where public tours and beer tastings are offered.

Interesting. I wonder if that came about as part of the deal to sell the brewery to the Boston Beer Company. Do you know what kind of stock options the Hudepohls got from Schoenling when they sold out?

You know I think I may just have a Moerline OTR with dinner tonight...

I chose mine as we were headed toward that epic #1 vs #2 showdown with scUM at the Shoe. I had never joined a web forum before, so I didn't realize how it becomes part of your forum personality or I'd have probably been more creative. At least it is a tribute to a great victory in Buckeye history.

Who I am is determined by who I married. Without him, I am nobody. He is my life, my meaning, my raison d'etre.















Ah, who am I kidding! I was lazy!
