Charles L. Centlivre founded The French Brewery in Fort Wayne, Indiana, in 1862, establishing what would become one of the region's most recognizable brewing operations. Initially producing only a handful of beers and ales, the company steadily expanded its offerings and, by the early 1930s, had grown its portfolio to more than a dozen varieties. Reflecting that growth, the brewery adopted the name Centlivre Brewing Company. In 1933, the company introduced Old Crown Beer, which quickly became a favorite among consumers and soon emerged as its best-selling brand. The beer's success was so significant that, in 1962, Centlivre Brewing officially renamed itself Old Crown Brewing Corporation. Despite its popularity and long history, financial difficulties eventually caught up with the company, and the brewery closed its doors in 1973, bringing an end to more than a century of brewing in Fort Wayne.
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
