Flashback Friday: Beer Baron History in Great Falls (January 10, 1997)

By KFBB News Team

What began as a small mom and pop grocery store in Great Falls back in the 1960's, soon turned into a famous product across Montana and beyond.

We're talking about beer baron sausages, which were created out of a little convenience store on 2nd Avenue North. The beer baron store closed in early 2007, so that the company could focus on producing their famous products for grocery stores across the country.

NewsChannel 5's Wendy Gillette filed this report on January 10th, 1997.
