During Winter family ownership, 1901-1925

Pre-Prohibition embossed bottles from The Orange Brewery can be found in aqua, clear, or brown glass featuring the Orange Brewery Trade Mark.

This wooden crate could hold 24 bottles for home delivery of beer by

horse-drawn wagons, and later by motor truck. This type of case can be seen

in this close-up of the 1916 "beer truck" photo found on the home page:

found 100 years ago in various Essex County taverns.

Centennial of The Oranges Parade, June 1907. The Orange Brewery float is pictured here, being drawn by a team of six horses. It features a man dressed as Bacchus, The Roman god of wine and intoxication, riding atop a giant barrel of beer, with beverage in hand. It proved to be one of the

more popular floats in the entire parade.
