Lancaster Brewing Company
The Lancaster Brewing Company is a brewery located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and produces premium malt-based beverages. Prior to the creation of the brewery's German-influenced lager, the city of Lancaster consumed mainly English-produced ales. Lancaster, Pennsylvania became known as a major producer of beer, even being dubbed the Munich of the United States. By 1810 Lancaster County produced seven percent of all beer brewed in the U.S.[1].
The Lancaster Brewing Company also operates a restaurant called Walnut Street Grille at the Brewery. This restaurant used to be a tobacco warehouse. It now serves a variety of foods ranging from gourmet salads, Chicago-style deep dish pizza, babyback ribs, Maryland crabcakes, citrus-grilled salmon, gourmet soups, and lamb burgers.
