Louis Wentzler

Louis Wentzler

Mr. Wentzler was born in Hanover, Muenden, Germany, in 1869 and came to Lykens in 1895.  He engaged in the brewery business on South Street which he purchased from the Bueck Estate.  In 1907 Mr. Wentzler took over the entire control of the brewery and since then has been the sole owner and manager.  He has made many improvements and has equipped his plant with most modern up-to-date machinery.  Mr. Wentzler served the borough twelve years as a member of council and is affiliated with the Elks and local order of L.O.O.M.
