Description:

This opener was a promotional giveaway commissioned by the Beverwyck Breweries, Inc., located in Albany, New York. Beverwyck was a major regional powerhouse that successfully survived Prohibition by producing soda and near-beer, bouncing back aggressively in 1933 with their "Famous" line of Irish Cream Ale and lager beers. The brewery was eventually sold to Schaefer Brewing in 1950. The Mechanism: This pocket tool utilizes a classic mid-century slide-out and retract mechanism. The flat, stamped metal bottle opener tab slides entirely inside an outer protective metal sheath or sleeve, making it sleek and smooth so it wouldn't rip the lining of a gentleman's trousers or vest pocket. The Graphics: It features a striking, durable green enameled background with contrasting white or cream-colored debossed typography. One side displays the slogan "Famous Beverwyck" while the reverse side lists "Beers / Ales".
