" This
photograph
shows
a
mustached
man
standing
behind
a
bar
. A
mirror
that
runs
the
length
of the
bar
hangs
on the
wall
and
bears
the
words
"
Welcome
" and "
Auf
Wiedersehen
". A
cash
register
,
which
could
be an
NCR
,
sits
in the
middle
of the
back
counter
. A
sign
for
Wooden
Shoe
Beer
hangs
on the
wall
,
just
behind
the
man
, to the
left
.
It
is
unclear
where
this
bar
is
located
,
though
it
could
be in the
Germantown
area
of
Dayton
.
Wooden
Shoe
Beer
was
produced
by the
Wooden
Shoe
Brewery
in
Minster
,
Ohio
, in
Auglaize
County
.
Formerly
known
as the
Star
Brewery
,
it
was
renamed
in
1913
to
take
advantage
of the
local
Pennsylvania
Dutch
connection
.
Around
1919
, the
company
renamed
again
as the
Star
Beverage
Company
, and
began
selling
non-alcoholic
drinks
,
because
of
prohibition
. In
1933
,
Wooden
Shoe
beer
was
reintroduced
officially
changed
the
company
name
back
to
Wooden
Shoe
Brewery
in
1940
.
Several
management
changes
, and
cost
cutting
changes
beginning
in
1950
effected
the
quality
of the
beer
, and
ended
up
closing
entirely
in
1954
. The
building
was
used
as a
warehouse
for
many
years
and was
eventually
demolished
in
1990
. The
Wooden
Shoe
Brewery
sponsored
the
Dayton
Indians
, a
minor
league
club
that
played
from
1946-1951
. The
brewery
has
experienced
a
rebirth
in
recent
years
and
is
again
producing
beer
in
Minster
, in a
brand
new
facility
.
