Charles Schaufler brewery 1896 and 2025

        There seems to be little information about Charles Schaufler and his breweries. There are a couple ads in the German press of the day but no hard info about production except for one article published in 1897 that shows the amount of barrels each brewery in Philadelphia produced. So, in 1896 Schaufler produced 800 barrels of beer. 

       According to oldbreweries.com he had at least three different addresses between 1876 and 1900. Between 1881 and 1900 he was brewing in a building at 816-818 N. 12th Street. In the book The 36th Annual Convention of The United States Brewers Association, June 1896 there is a photo of that brewery. This brewery building still exists today in a slight modified form.
