Today is the birthday of Stephen Weber (May 11, 1822-September 2, 1901). He was born in Bavaria, but settled in Waukesha, Wisconsin, where he founded the Weber Brewing Co. in 1862. There’s not much I could find about Weber, unfortunately.
Here’s a short biography of Stephen Weber from “The History of Waukesha County, Wisconsin.”
