It'd be a shame to see this article deleted. At family reunions when I was kid everyone had Straub beer t-shirts and the kegs of Straub Beer were flowing. If you need help send me an e-mail: davestraub@yahoo.com --David Straub 14:11, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copying text

There is no point in simply doing a cut and paste of material on another website. This is against the rules of Wikipedia and is usually against the law. Such copyright theft diminishes the credibility of Wikipedia and can get Wikipedia into trouble. To make this article grow you need to do some research and write up your findings in your own words.

[edit] Which website?

I tried looking for the website SilkTork said this page was copied from, but I couldn't find it. Which site? It does look like someone might have copied it, but they also just might know alot about the subject. That's why I placed the citation tags. Isn't a reversion a bit drastic? I'll wait a few days for someone to respond to this message. If there's no protest, I'll revert back to back with the citation tags. --David Straub 14:17, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Additions to article

I've added references and external links, I've clarified some material in the article, and I've rated the article on the quality and importance scales. This article satisfies the notability requirement - Straub Brewery is an important Pennsylvania landmark and it is one of the few family-owned breweries from early times (i.e., before Prohibition) still operating in the USA.
