No idea what this is worth but I do see there are many variations from this brewing company. This however is an early example based off the pictures examples online. No glass manufacturer but I’d guess this is probably late 1880’s early 1890’s. Any Ohio guys out there?

Hi a2ted, nice bottle there. I would say the bottle is late 1880s 1890s I believe. There is some really in depth history about this brewery here https://www.taverntrove.com/henry-hubach-city-brewery-of-tiffin-ohio-usa-br-1678.html

This site says that the trade name city brewery henry hubach is from 1877 to 1906. The fate of this brewery building is unkown.
As for price I am not sure on but I am guessing it would be similar to other beers of that timeline, but is based on rarity and conditions, but not 100 percent on that bottle. Cool find

You know I have no idea what it would go for but truthfully in my experience anything that is listed as “city brewery” in general is typically from a smaller operation as opposed to something like a man’s name’s brewing company. The later variants are just Hubach’s Brewery it appears so this is indicative of an earlier bottle that we can assume there was far fewer of distributed.

29 Years is alot of time to distribute alot of these Beer Bottles. As opposed to the 13 Years it ran as the Hubach's Brewery Co. LEON.
