Special Drink

Emma Koehler took Pearl Brewing to the top, even throughout the prohibition years, when they switched to soft drinks and food production.

It was after the Volstead Act was revoked, that the company grew faster than ever before. Hotel Emma still offers a drink named after the owner’s three ladies: “The Three Emmas.” This drink is served with a warning: “one is great, and three will kill ya.”
