- The Brown family can breathe easy on their Fourth of July after searching nonstop for a piece of beer history.
Their historic 1964 Schlitz Beer sign was returned on Thursday, around 5:00 p.m.
“I’m shaking,” said owner Todd Brown. “I still can’t believe it.”
He had just gotten it on Sunday, but it was too big to get through the front door.
Todd and his wife collect, restore and sell historic brewing memorabilia at their shop, Brewtown Collectibles in Bay View. The sign, which weighs 250 pounds, was stolen on Tuesday night at 5:08 p.m. from the shop’s front porch. Todd reached out to TMJ4 for help.

This is so great! It feels like a "small town" story. Glad the sign made its way back home.
I’m glad they gave it back the old guy didn’t deserve that I actually felt bad for him. Dam idiots
When your out of Bud, "TUFF SCHLITZ"!
Wow, for once good news in the news. Awesome
Wait! So the reporter doing this is named Biermeister? 🤣🤣
Respect
🙏🏽
Nice
I'm so happy the people who stole the lantern returned it to its rightful owner and place, and apologized for what they did. Learn the lesson - alcohol and thinking don't mix. Remember the 41 year old man in South Carolina who died on July 4th 2024 after putting a firecracker on top of his head and lit it. He died from "severe head injuries." He did that "trick" around 11 p.m., the report said he'd been drinking since 6 p.m. according to family members.
Glad the got the sign back. He does sell refurbished beer signs as well. I’m not sayin’ just sayin’
you need to be playing the lottery
So where are the charges for the people who stole it? A super big beer sign? Who even thinks of doing something like that? Its funny how nobody is even asking for charges no comments about locking up the thugs who did it. Geez I wonder why 🤔
