The Kaier Story tells the colorful history of the Kaier Family from 1854 when C.D. Kaier came to America to 2017 when the five story brew house on North Main Street in Mahanoy City was demolished. In between you’ll learn about the life and times of Mahanoy City’s most famous family and the award winning beer they brewed. The Kaier Story is on two DVDs and runs about one hour and forty minutes. It is the result of many hundreds of hours of research and is the most extensive history of the Kaier family and the Kaier Brewery.

In this video tour you’ll see the brew house in operation and meet the people responsible for the brewing of Mahanoy City’s most famous product: Kaier’s Beer. The Story of Good Beer runs about twenty minutes and was restored from a 35mm film that originally was shown at the Victoria Theatre in 1945.
