| Additional Information: | KNOWN AS THE "WORLD'S LARGEST SIX-PACK" THE SIX TANKS, ARRANGED LIKE A SIX PACK OF BEER, ARE HOLDING TANKS FOR BEER FROM WHAT WAS FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE G. HEILMANN BREWING COMPANY, NOW NAMED CITY BREWERY. THE TANKS WERE PAINTED IN THE 1960S TO APPEAR LIKE CANS OF THE HEILMANN'S ICONIC OLD STYLE LAGER. UNDER CITY BREWERY OWNERSHIP, THE TANKS ARE NOW PLASTIC WRAPPED TO LOOK LIKE THE COMPANY'S LA CROSSE LAGER CANS. |
