The year was 1933 and the great
experiment ended in failure, prohibition was over and many breweries that
struggled through thirteen years of producing candy, soda pop and near beer to
survive could now return to brewing beer! As production restarted with
breweries, delivery companies began to spring up in boroughs and towns to
distribute kegs and cases to taverns and homes throughout their communities.
The Vecenie Family started one of these companies in Millvale, Pennsylvania in
April of 1933, delivering local brews from Sharpsburg, Lawrenceville and even
Millvale itself. Seventy years have past since the first delivery from Vecenie's
Distributing Company but some things have not changed. The main office is still
located at 140 North Avenue, the address of the original distributorship
and third generation Vecenie's still deliver Pittsburgh's local favorite - Iron
City beer. At the same time, beers from as far as Northern California, Munich,
Germany, and the Czech Republic are represented throughout the Western
Pennsylvania area. Additional warehouse space has been added over the years, but
the same goal remains - deliver good fresh product to those who enjoy it!
