Horlachers (PGLXXX)



This old beer ad sits along the railroad tracks at the Route 30 crossing near York, Pa. Technically it would be on the outskirts of Thomasville, Pa. Thomasville is where the airport is and where Pfaltzgraf pottery used to be. It is unknown whether or not this building was the Sheffer Distribution Company or if it was actually downtown York. If you know let me know.
Googling tells me little about Horlachers Beer. Just that it was brewed in Allentown, Pa. from 1873 until 1978 and that it was "bought by various breweries", whatever that means.
