Our roots are humble. Albert W. Vontz, a 22-year-old German immigrant, arrived son,
in Cincinnati in 1907. He was a trained brewer and soon invested his money in two Al Jr.
local taverns. After Prohibition ended, he helped open Cincinnati’s Vienna Brewery but
eventually sold his shares to his brother-in-law.

Albert drove a truck every day from the Heidelberg Brewery in Covington, Kentucky
to deliver the popular Student Prince beer to grocery stores and restaurants in Dayton.
The brewery closed in 1946, but Vontz kept the Heidelberg name and found new beer
and wine products to distribute.

His only child, Albert Vontz Jr., returned from World War II as a lieutenant in the U.S. Navy
and became active in the business. With a degree in economics from the University of
Cincinnati, Al looked for opportunities to expand, and the firm has been growing ever since.

Albert Vontz Jr. passed away in 2002, but not before the company had grown substantially through
mergers, acquisitions and industry consolidation.
