Little Switzerland Labels

INNKEEPER BEER
Innkeeper was available in both 12 ounce and 32 ounce bottles. The Swiss motif in the background of the picture matches the one on the exterior of the brewery. Little to nothing has been written about this brand, something we'd like to change. If you know anything about this product, or have any Innkeeper breweriana, I would love to see it and/or hear about it.

Fellow Huntington collectors, Joe Older and Phil Dobeck each have a sign advertising Innkeeper for 39 cents. As Joe said to me, "what a deal!" Another person wrote in and said he had a friend who drank Innkeeper Beer once and it tasted like swill. Oh well, beauty is in the eye of the BEERholder!

Thanks to Phil Dobeck for the price-card.
