F. Keller, who had perished in <a href="/wiki/California" title="California">California</a> seeking his fortune in the gold fields. Unable to finance the venture himself, Keller had entered into a partnership with Hamm to secure funding. Upon Keller's death, Hamm inherited the small brewery and flour mill in the east side wilderness of Saint Paul, Minnesota. Keller had constructed his brewery in 1860 over <a href="/wiki/Artesian_well" title="Artesian well">artesian wells</a> in a section of the Phalen Creek valley in Saint Paul then known as <a href="/wiki/Swede_Hollow" class="mw-redirect" title="Swede Hollow">Swede Hollow</a>. </p><p>Hamm, a butcher by trade and local saloon owner, first hired <a href="/wiki/Jacob_Schmidt_Brewing_Company" title="Jacob Schmidt Brewing Company">Jacob Schmidt</a> as a brew master. Schmidt remained with the company until the early 1880s, becoming a close family friend of the Hamms. Schmidt left the company after an argument over Louise Hamm's disciplinary actions regarding Schmidt's daughter, Marie. By 1884, Schmidt was a partner at the North Star Brewery not far from Hamm's brewery. By 1899, he had established his own brewery on the site of the former Stalhmann Brewery site. In need of a new brewmaster, Hamm hired Christopher Figge, who started a tradition of three generations of Hamm's brewmasters, with his son William and grandson William II eventually serving in the position. By the 1880s, the Theodore Hamm Brewing Company was reportedly the second largest in Minnesota. </p><p>During <a href="/wiki/Prohibition_in_the_United_States" title="Prohibition in the United States">Prohibition</a>, the company survived by producing soft drinks and other food products, enabling it to expand rapidly through acquisitions after the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. From 1933 until 1965, Hamm's saw much success becoming the fifth largest brewery in the nation by the 1950s;<sup id="cite_ref-dancing_bear_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-dancing_bear-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> much of this can be attributed to William C. Figge Jr. taking over as president in 1951. Figge expanded the Hamm's brand into a national entity with breweries in Saint Paul, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Baltimore, and Houston. The latter two were short-lived and closed soon after they opened. As the company celebrated its 100th anniversary, the family sold the brewery and left the brewing industry to focus on its real estate ventures. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History_of_ownership">History of ownership</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Hamm%27s_Brewery&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: History of ownership"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1965, the company was acquired by <a href="/wiki/Heublein" title="Heublein">Heublein</a>.
