Biographical/Historical note

The Spokane Brewing and Malting Company was founded 1900 in a merger / purchase of the Henco Brewery and the New York Brewery (both established in 1886). In 1902 the Galland-Burke Brewing and Malting Company was purchased by S.B. & M. All three breweries were operated, at least initially, as ranch breweries. The company remained in business until the mid-thirties when the assets were sold to the Sicks-Rainier brewing interests of Puget Sound. Plant operations continued until 1962.
