Fitger Brewing Co. of Duluth, MN announced this week the issue of its 125th Anniversary Lager in a special carrier and bottle featuring its original "A. Fitger & Co's" lager beer.

Fitger's line of beer is distributed throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Originally founded in Duluth, MN, on the shores of Lake Superior, by August Fitger, the brewing company was once the largest of the regional brewers with over 100,000 barrels produced at the height of manufacturing capacity in the 1930's.

The original Fitger Brewing Co. continued throughout the Prohibition to brew and deliver 'Non-Alco' beer and the manufacture and distribution of soda, candy, and cigars.

Fitger is best known for traditional lagers under the Fitger's Nordlager, Rex, Dog's Head, Pickwick, and A. Fitger & Co's, trademark labels.

Today, the Fitger Brewing Company is owned and operated by the decendants of the founder and expressly controls the quality and heritage of beer brewed under the
Fitger lables.
