Frederick Pabst: Mariner
The name Pabst is usually associated with his beer. But before he became a beer baron, Frederick Pabst had an entirely different career. Did you ever wonder why is he called “Captain” Pabst? This lecture will explore the days when Pabst was a mariner, plying the waters of Lake Michigan. Through seldom seen photos, newspaper accounts, and anecdotes, we’ll follow young Pabst as he gained valuable experience that would one day lead to fame and fortune.
