Historical archives for the 'Great Falls Breweries, Inc. 1933 to 1968' shows in the
information below that the 'Montana Brewing Company' was in business dating from
the 1890's to it's purchase in 1933.
"...Great Falls Breweries Inc. was founded by Emil Sick in 1933 immediately after the repeal of Prohibition.
It was begun with the purchase of the interests of the Montana Brewing Company and the American
Brewing Company, two Great Falls firms dating from the 1890s that had been closed by Prohibition. Mr. Sick
continued the operation until 1949 when he sold the property to local interests. It was again sold in 1966
to Blitz-Weinhard Company of Portland, Oregon, which continued operations until September, 1968 when
severe economic conditions forced the closure of the Great Falls plant. At the time of its closing, the Great Falls
operation was the last operating brewery in the four state area of Montana, Idaho, North Dakota, and Wyoming.."
