Beer history to be exact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On January 24, 1935, the Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company, in collaboration with the American Can Company, introduced Krueger\u2019s Finest Beer and Krueger\u2019s Cream Ale in cans to the public in Richmond, Virginia. It was the first day beer was sold in cans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Krueger&#8217;s Cream Ale first went on sale in cans this date, but the beer can really made its debut 14 months earlier. The American Can Company had engineered a workable beer can, all that was needed was a brewer willing to fill it. The Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company of Newark, NJ signed on the dotted line in November 1933. By the end of that month, American had installed a temporary canning line and delivered 2,000 Krueger&#8217;s Special Beer cans, which were promptly filled with 3.2% Krueger beer &#8211; the highest alcohol content allowed at the time. Krueger&#8217;s Special Beer thus became the world&#8217;s first beer can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:29% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"411\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2023\/08\/2491f728-ckmornings-podcast-feature-695x411.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31464 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2023\/08\/2491f728-ckmornings-podcast-feature-695x411.jpg 695w, https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2023\/08\/2491f728-ckmornings-podcast-feature-768x454.jpg 768w, https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2023\/08\/2491f728-ckmornings-podcast-feature.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Never miss a minute of CKMORNINGS!
