Johann Adam Lemp was born in 1798 in Eschwege, Germany, and two years after his arrival in the United States in 1836, he moved to St. Louis.[3] He sought to make his fortune by becoming a grocer; however he abandoned this dream when he realized his grocery store was more popular for its lager beer than for its groceries.[4] In 1840, Adam Lemp closed his grocery and opened a brewery and saloon, then known as the Western Brewery.[2] During the 1840s, Lemp moved the brewery to a larger complex in south St. Louis and began training his son, William J. Lemp, to take over the operations.[5] The elder Lemp died in 1862, with his estate being valued at $20,000.[4] William J. Lemp then took over the brewery and purchased the property that would become the Lemp Brewery complex in 1864.[6] This property at 3500 Lemp Avenue, still stands in St. Louis today. The Lemp Brewery company closed in 1921, and sold its Falstaff brand to the then-named Griesedieck Beverage Company. Griesedieck Beverage was renamed the Falstaff Corporation and survived Prohibition by selling near beer, soft drinks, and cured hams under the Falstaff name. Its main label Falstaff Beer went out of production in 2005 Keep in mind the shipping price also covers handling fees, packaging materials & time, not just postage.
