What started as a simple search for some beer signs to decorate my basement quickly turned into a full-blown passion. After attending my first beer memorabilia show, I was hooked. The history, the artwork, the stories — everything about breweriana grabbed me. Since then, I’ve been chasing rare finds, collecting vintage pieces, and enjoying the thrill of the hunt, especially when I get to do it alongside my dad.
In April 2025, I launched Dan The Beer Man to share this passion with others. My collection includes vintage bottles, wooden crates, classic signs, colorful cans, serving trays and tap handles, plus plenty more unique pieces from the world of breweriana. I’m especially focused on items from Wisconsin brewers, but I have a deep appreciation for anything related to beer history and memorabilia.
I’m drawn to the rich history, the stories, and everything that reflects a unique time in brewing, capturing the character and charm of each piece.
I’m always looking to add to my collection and connect with fellow collectors who love the nostalgia and storytelling behind breweriana.
