The drinks at Klop’s Speakeasy Lounge
How the venue describes itself: “First brewed in Ft. Wayne in 1957 by Centlivre Brewing Co., Alps Brau is coming back! Classic Indiana beer lovers, check out our online store. Cheers!” (from its own website, retrieved 9 October 2026)
Beyond what the venue publishes we have not verified a list, so what follows is the period rather than the bar: Mary Pickford, El Presidente, and Hotel Nacional Special are all drinks of this era, and each links to its origin and its build.

Prohibition in Indiana
Indiana did not wait for the federal government. Statewide prohibition took effect here in 1918, two years before the Eighteenth Amendment came into force nationally on 17 January 1920. By the time the Volstead Act was being enforced across the country, Indiana already had an established illegal trade and the habits that went with it.
