Known Philadelphia Embossed Brewery Beer Bottles

Best viewed to the tune of "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall"

The list below was compiled from several Philadelphia beer bottle collectors. An effort was made to list different breweries, not every bottle that each brewery produced. American Breweries II (Van Wieren 1995) numbers were used wherever they exist. We welcome additions to this list, feel free to contact Rich Wagner at zymrgst@verizon.net and check out Bruce Mobley's Bottle Site.

Key to Collections: RW: Rich Wagner,  DV: Dale Van Wieren,  TV: Tod Von Mechow, GF: Gene Fink, CP; Charlie Podeyn, JC; Jim Cartin, LD; Len Davidson, BM; Bruce Mobley, BS; Bottle Show (unknown collector).
