Description: Detroit native Louis Griesinger apprenticed at the Christian Moerlein Brewing Company in Cincinnati and soon found that he not only had a knack for making beer, but genuinely enjoyed it. Wanting to strike out on his own, Griesinger relocated to Windsor, Ontario in 1885 where he founded the British-American Brewing Co., one of the city's earliest breweries. His first completed batch was a pale lager, but as cream ales were becoming popular at the time, he called his lager 'Cincinnati Cream.' His first six barrels were well received, and before long, Cincinnati Cream was a local favorite. Griesinger was soon exporting to America, and expanded his brewery to encompass four city blocks producing 5,000,000 gallons annually by the mid-'50.
