| | San Francisco Bay Guardian : Article : 1906 Earthquake Survivor: Anchor Brewing Company |
 | | Anchor is a survivor, all right, but the brewery might not have lasted if it hadn't been for a young Stanford graduate, Fritz Maytag, who bought a majority share of the business for a few thousand dollars in 1965. |
 | | In 1992 he considered going public, but a microbrewery fad exploded in the United States, and Anchor Brewing suddenly had plenty of competitors. |
 | | Instead of growing his business, Maytag concentrates on the quality of his brews, using the freshest ingredients, original equipment, and personally ensuring the integrity of every batch. |
