Since soda and dairy bottles are my thing, I'm not at all familliar with Seipps beer bottles, and would like to know if this one with the "CHICAGA" error is common or not. It was found at an antique store, the price was fairly cheap and the condition is great, so it now sits on the bar. Kinda neat to have.

Merry Christmas Jughed and to the Forum. Conrad Seipp was for many years the leading brewery in Chicago. His bottles in varies shapes & sizes are common.Your bottle dates to right before prohibition.The Conrad Seipp Brewing Co. never survived prohibition. I believe Chicago is indeed spelled in error, I have not seen that on other Seipp bottles. Hope this helps, John

Interesting Jughed. Thanks for sharing the pic. Do you collect Chicago beers? Or all Chicago bottles? Paul
