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.
The Lancaster Brewing Company also operates a restaurant called Walnut Street Grille at the Brewery. This restaurant is housed in the historic Edward McGovern Tobacco Warehouse, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

Famous quotes containing the word company:
“The Bermudas are said to have been discovered by a Spanish ship of that name which was wrecked on them.... Yet at the very first planting of them with some sixty persons, in 1612, the first governor, the same year, “built and laid the foundation of eight or nine forts.” To be ready, one would say, to entertain the first ship’s company that should be next shipwrecked on to them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
