Above, rolling out the barrels at the Griesedieck Brothers Brewery, 1920 Shenandoah ave., was resumed yesterday as picket lines were withdrawn by the AFL Teammasters Local 688, which had sought to organize office workers.
The Carling Brewing Company of Cleveland bought out Griesedieck Western Brewery Company, makers of Stag, on Nov. 1, 1954. Since then they have closed the St. Louis brewery and consolidated operations at the Belleville plant.
There is a right way and wrong way to draw a glass of beer from a tap. This is the correct way-letting the beer bounce off the bottom of the glass instead of allowing it to trickle down the side.
In the image, the viewer can see a medium sized tank which contains Carling's 3,000,000th BBL. The three millionth barrel of beer was produced in 1957 by the Belleville plant.
