Water Company Socks
Description: The Sweet Water Brewing Company, opened in 1872 as the Green River Brewery, one of the first in the Wyoming Territory. Hugo Gaensslen purchased the brewery in 1892 and continued to operate it until 1899, when he leveled the structures. Leaning on architectural inspiration from his native Germany, as well as the Chicago Water Tower from the neighborhood he originally immigrated to, he built his modern new brewery with local sandstone blocks and reopened as the Sweet Water Brewing Company. In 1904 and 1905, the brewery won medals at the World’s Fair, and Sweet Water's beers were increasingly in demand. When Prohibition went into effect, Sweet Water did what many breweries did to stay afloat and produced non-alcoholic beverages.

Description: An obscure reference to the scurrilous Burr! In 1799, New York City needed clean water and Aaron Burr needed money and power, so he convinced Alexander Hamilton to help him charter The Manhattan Company—a water company that would bring "pure and wholesome water" to lower Manhattan. Buried in the charter's language was a clause allowing it to use its excess funds for anything it wanted, which let Burr create a bank that helped his Democratic-Republican Party win the Election of 1800 and went on to become the powerful Chase Manhattan Bank.
