The Blitz-Weinhard brand was among several regional Pacific Northwest beers which were staples in that market during the decades following the repeal of Prohibition. As competition from national brands began to erode the market share of longstanding northwest beers, Blitz-Weinhard responded by creating what many consider Oregon’s first craft beer, Henry Weinhard’s Private Reserve (also referred to as Henry Weinhard’s or Henry’s), in 1976.[2]
