Notes:

Edward F. Abner (1864-1910)³
Edward F. Abner was born June 26, 1864 in Calogne, Germany.
Abner came to American in 1884. Shortly after, he worked at the National Capitol Brewing Company as Secretary & Treasurer. In 1895 he aquired the Albert Brewing Company, on the corner of F and 25th Street NW. Two years later the brewery was greatly enlarged and he created the Abner & Drury Brewing Company, with Abner serving as president.⁴

Peter A. Drury (b. July 6, 1864 in Ireland )
Peter A. Drury was the vice-president and treasurer of the Abner-Drury brewing company. He was listed as a saloon owner as well as a liquor merchant in DC directories from 1889-1893. During prohibition years, he became a banker.

Abner-Drury Brewery (1898-1936)
Abner-Drury beers included Royal Pilsen (light), Old Glory (dark) and Progressive Brew (low alchohol)⁵.
I have an advertizement for Abner-Drury beer that indicates it was bottled by the Northwestern Bottling Company.

In 1920, the brewery reorganized and changed it's name from the "Abner-Drury Brewery Company" to the "Abner Drury Company", and used its plant on 25th Street to make popular non-alchoholic beverages. Trustees were Peter A. Drury, Paol Eschner, and Joseph A. Rafferty.⁶

My directory searches show that the Abner-Drury company stayed around until 1936. In 1937 and 1938, "The Washington Brewery" was listed at the same address of 2524 G Street NW. John Easby Smith was listed as the president, with John Reilly and John Dibb as the vice presidents (a lot of Johns, but no Abners or Drurys), so presumably the brewery had been sold.

In 1938, the brewery building was sold to Charles Jacobsen, president of the Arlington Bottling Company⁷.

An unsubstantiated story I read from an eBay seller of an Abner-Drury bottle said this:

The Abner-Drury Brewery, from 1910 till 1919 was considered the "Prince of Ales" in the "Foggy Bottom" district of Washington D.C.. Then it was closed for prohibition. When prohibition was lifted in 1933 "Abner - Drury", in it's rush to become the first to sell beer in D.C. opened its doors shortly after midnight on the first day of repeal. In doing so they sold their beer too green so it made half the town sick, therefore getting the reputation of selling bad beer. The old brewery closed it's doors forever 2 months afterward.
