This Week in 1972...
Peoples Brewing Company stopped making beer 50 years ago this week, in October of 1972. When that happened, it marked the first time since 1849 that Oshkosh was without a functioning brewery. And for the next 23 years, the only beer made here was homebrew. Commercial brewing did not return to Oshkosh until 1995 when Fox River Brewing Company opened. We’ve had a brewery or breweries ever since.
