Sicks Brewery in Salem,
operated by Sicks' Brewing
Malting Company of Seattle,
is la the closing days of operation.
Floyd W. Shepard, execu
tive vice president of the com
pany, announced from Port
land Sunday that the Salem
plant would close this week.
The plant has a payroll of
70 persons. As far as possible
they will be employed by the
company at other plants. What
disposition will be mad of
the Salem properties has not
been decided.
The company's three other
plants, two in Seattle and one
in Spokane, are In an expan
sion program, and the com
pany's widely-advertised prod'
uct. Brew 66, will be concen
trated In those plants..
"They have more total ea
paclty than any other, brewing
organization in the north'
west," Shepard said, "and we
are now able to take full ad
vantage of our long-term ex
pansion program.
Steve Tabacchi, who has
been . general manager of the
Salem plant for more than a
year, said he would stay In
Salem to operate Valley Dis
tributors, a new concern, and
that the Sicks products would
be handled here. He expects
to keep the distribution per
sonnel of eight persons. For
some time his operation will
be from the Sicks building
here end he is acquiring the
distribution facilities.
Gregory Lancaster, secre
tary-treasurer of the Salem
plant, will be transferred to
one of the other plants. He
will not leave Salem imme
diately.
"As far as possible,'' Tabac
chi said, "employes of the Sa
lem plant will . be absorbed
into other plants of the com
The financial statement of
the company for 1952 showed
earnings ot 93,000,888, as
compared to $4,570,900 the
previous year. At the three
plants in Washington produc
tion has been increased In re
cent years by 300,000 barrels
year. x .
The Salem plant has been
producing 78,000 barrels, or
27,000,000 bottles, a year.
The Sicks company has op
erated the Salem plant 10
years, but the history of the
brewing Industry here dates
back 87 years, .growing out of
a brewery established by Sam
uel Adolph. That was in 1866
and the location was at
Church and Trade Streets,
Fire destroyed the building
and the brewery was moved
to the southeast corner of
Commercial and Trade where
the city . water office now
stands.
In 1885 Adolph sold the
business to two' of his em
ployes, Maurice Klinger and
Seraphin - Beck. After operat
ing for some time they moved
the industry across the street
to the present location and
erected a building 75 by 60
feet, producing 3300 barrels
year.
The bottling was done In a
separate plant at Mission and
Saginaw by a man named
Westacott, but in 1900 the
brewery had its own bottling
plant. It had come to be
known as the Capital City
Brewery, and had a tap room
with sawdust floor, S-ctnt
beer and free lunch and a cli
entele that was largely political.
In 1903 the Schmidt Inter
ests and Kola Nels bought the
brewery . and organized the
Salem Brewery Association,
Facilities were added in the
next few years, and by 1910
the plant was considered the
most modern between Olym
pia and San Francisco. It
brought some famous Drew
masters to Salem, among them
Charles Scholl, Leo Schmidt
and Paul Schmidt '
Shortly after that Salem
voted "dry," and the compa
ny's officers were moved to
Portland where a warehouse
was set up. The association
went out of business in 1915
when the whole state voted
dry,' and a little later the
Phes Com pan" was formed.
specializing In . Lo-Ju, a soft
drink made from loganberry
Juice. ...... .
When prohibition was re
pealed In 1933 the Salem
Brewery Association was re
organized, and operated the
plant until it was taken over
by Sicks 10 years ago.
The plant now extends from
Commercial to Liberty on the
north side of Trade, along
Liberty to the' Armory and
along Commercial to the Mar
lon Hotel property. ,
