The short(y) story of Rhinelander Brewing:
A seven-ounce beer helped put Rhinelander on the map. The Rhinelander Brewing Company, maker of the Rhinelander Shorty, is still going strong decades after it first started quenching peoples thirst in Hodag Country. The company recently opened a new brewery downtown, and its an attraction you wont want to miss. The Rhinelander Brewing Company has a long history—in 1882, nine years before the Hodag was first officially spotted, Otto Hilgermann and Henry Danne were crafting the first Rhinelander Beer in the Northwoods. The company faced a few challenges over the years. The brewery burned down in 1897, but was rebuilt only to be shuttered for a bigger disaster—Prohibition. The company reopened in 1933 only to close again in 1967 for financial reasons. The brewery’s assets were purchased by the Joseph Huber Brewing Company, and Rhinelander beer was brewed for years in Monroe. In 2009, Jyoti Auluck acquired the Rhinelander Brewing assets and began an effort to bring the Rhinelander Brewery home to Rhinelander. The brewery recently cut the ribbon on a new brewing facility and taproom in downtown Rhinelander.
The Shorty:
Great things often come in small packages, which is perhaps why the seven-ounce Rhinelander Shorty has been so beloved in the Northwoods. The classically refreshing beer, sold in a stubby little bottle, was so popular in the 1940s that one of Rhinelander’s baseball teams was called the Rhinelander Shorties. The beer is a crisp and refreshing light lager with an ABV of about 5 percent. It’s the perfect beverage—and the perfect size—to enjoy while out fishing, sitting on the beach or relaxing after some time on the trails, etc.
