At its peak, it was the 5th largest brewery in America, and operated facilities in five cities, including San Francisco, L.A., Baltimore and Houston, in addition to the original brewery in Minnesota. This one features a barley farming scene with a giant bottle f beer in the foreground, with the tagline “Hamm’s Beer, Brewed From America’s Finest Barley.”
