Anton Dreher
Anton Dreher(, Sr.) (born May 7, 1810, in Klein-Schwechat (now a part of Schwechat), near Vienna (Austria) - December 27, 1863, Schwechat) was an Austrian brewer who was an important figure in the development of pale lager.
In 1840, he introduced a beer that combined the crispness of lager with the paler hues of the English ale; this new style of beer became known as the Viennese style, and was called the Schwechater Lagerbier ("Schwechat Lager Beer").
