The F&S Brewery : Past, Present, & Future

One of the oldest breweries in Pennsylvania, The F&S Brewery, has a history that runs deep in the coal region. Learn about the history of how the building came to be, the changes it went through during the prohibition era, and the plans it underwent as part of the revitalization of the Shamokin area.
Fuhrmann & Schmidt Brewing Company, formed in 1906, was located at Commerce & Washington Streets in Shamokin, Pennsylvania. F&S was the successor company to the Eagle Brewing Company.
