Gottfried Merch
Description: Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, a German polymath, was a prominent philosopher, mathematician, and logician. Known for his calculus, binary system, and principle of sufficient reason, his contributions spanned multiple disciplines and laid the foundation for modern computer science and logic.
Description: The Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company was a brewery in Newark, New Jersey founded by Gottfried Krueger and John Laible (Gottfried's uncle) in 1858. The company produced Krueger's Special Beer, the first beer to be sold in cans, in November, 1933. By 1952, the Newark plant was producing one million barrels a year. Unfortunately, the 1950s saw consolidation in the brewing industry, and breweries like Anheuser-Busch and Miller squeezed out market share. In 1961, Krueger was licensed to Narragansett Brewing until production ceased.
