  Milwaukee Brewers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Brewers were part of the American League through the 1997 season, after which they switched to the National League.

 Brewers Log - American Brewers Guild
I was always aware that British brewers of an earlier age brewed incredibly strong beers with enormous amounts of hops (the alcohol and the hops both have a preservative value) for shipment overseas.
The brewer would start the brewing day by mashing-in very early, then would go home for breakfast and change of clothes before returning to "set taps." Water is another area where there is a great deal of variation.
Although one English brewer who produced a natural lager, went to the trouble of sending a sample to Germany to get it certified as "pure." As a rule though the British are quite happy to use hop extracts and essences, sugars and syrups, acids in the kettle, coloring agents, even preservatives in the beer.
