Two Sisters Work To Resurrect Joseph Wolf Brewing Co in MN

From Vitamin.mn:

For roughly 40 years over the turn of the 20th century, Joseph Wolf and his brother, Martin, provided thirsty Stillwater loggers with locally brewed beer. But just as annual production peaked at an approximately Surly-sized 25,000 barrels, Prohibition pulled the plug on the beer-making venture in 1920. A year later Joseph died — family lore blames a broken heart — and Joseph Wolf Brewing Co. soon sputtered out.

Now descendants of the Swiss immigrant are putting the brand back together. Joseph’s great-granddaughters Pat Wolf and Kathy Wolf Swanson unveiled Joseph Wolf Brewing 2.0 last month, and bombers of their two new brews are slowly trickling into liquor stores and bars.
