Question: Schnell Brewery (1864–1872), owned by who, was located in the Dupont Circle neighborhood, the Schnell brewery produced Weißbier, a wheat beer, in small quantities during its operation, a wheat beer,  usually top-fermented, which is brewed with a large proportion of wheat relative to the amount of malted barley?
Context: Wheat beer is a beer, usually top-fermented, which is brewed with a large proportion of wheat relative to the amount of malted barley.  The two main varieties are Weissbier and Witbier; minor types include Lambic, Berliner Weisse and Gose. Grain whisky ordinarily refers to any whisky made, at least in part, from grains other than malted barley, such as whisky made using maize (corn), wheat or rye.  Grain whiskies may also contain some malted barley (and are required to if produced in Ireland or Scotland.)  Whisky made from only malted barley is generally called malt whisky rather than grain whisky.  Most American and Canadian whiskies are grain whiskies. Schnell Brewery (1864–1872), owned by George Schnell, was located in the Dupont Circle neighborhood on 20th Street between M and N Streets, Northwest.  It was purchased by Christian Heurich and Paul Rutter in 1872 and served as the first location of the Christian Heurich Brewing Company.  The Schnell brewery produced Weißbier in small quantities during its operation.  When the brewery was purchased by Heurich and Ritter, George Schnell was sick and the brewery was operated by his wife, one of the early female brewers in Washington DC. This is a list of brewing companies in Germany.  Beer is a major part of German culture.  For many years German beer was brewed in adherence to the "Reinheitsgebot" order or law which only permitted water, hops, yeast and malt as beer ingredients.  The order also required that beers not exclusively using barley-malts, such as wheat beer, must be top-fermented. The Canadian Wheat Board (French: "Commission canadienne du blé" ) was a marketing board for wheat and barley in Western Canada.  Established by the Parliament of Canada on 5 July 1935, its operation was governed by the Canadian Wheat Board Act as a mandatory producer marketing system for wheat and barley in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and a small part of British Columbia.  It was illegal for any farmer in areas under the CWB's jurisdiction to sell their wheat and barley through any other channel than the CWB.  Although often called a monopoly, it was actually a monopsony since it was the only "buyer" of wheat and barley.  It was a marketing agency acting on behalf of Western Canadian farmers, passing all profits from its operation back to farmers.  Its market power over wheat and barley marketing was referred to as the "Single Desk". War Horse Brewing Company (formerly Barley Yards Brewing Company), part of the Three Brothers Wineries & Estates, is a brewery operated by Dave Mansfield in Geneva, New York, USA.  The brewery opened on May 24, 2008 and is the first brewery in the United States to brew a Riesling ale, made by blending the wort of an American-style wheat beer with ten percent juice from Riesling grapes. Dupont Circle is a traffic circle, park, neighborhood, and historic district in Northwest Washington, D.C. The traffic circle is located at the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue NW, Connecticut Avenue NW, New Hampshire Avenue NW, P Street NW, and 19th Street NW.  The Dupont Circle neighborhood is bounded approximately by 16th Street NW to the east, 22nd Street NW to the west, M Street NW to the south, and Florida Avenue NW to the north.  The local government Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC 2B) and the Dupont Circle Historic District have slightly different boundaries.  The circle is named for Rear Admiral Samuel Francis Du Pont. Brauerei Gebr.  Maisel KG ("Maisel Bros.  Brewery") is a family-owned brewery located in Bayreuth, Germany, best known for their wheat beer.  It is the fourth largest producer of wheat beer in Germany, with annual production of around 410000 hl , employing 160 workers. Edelweiss Weissbier (also spelled Edelweiß Weißbier), a wheat beer (or more specifically weissbier, a culturally and historically specific style of wheat beer), brewed until 2010 near Salzburg, Austria by , and since 2010 somewhere else (neither commercial nor brewery's websites provide any information on the subject).  While the Edelweiss brand as a beer dates to 1986, the brewery itself was founded in 1475 as 'Kalte Bräuhaus' by the mayor of the village of Kaltenhausen, Johann Elsenhaimer. Beer is the oldest and most widely consumed alcoholic drink in the world, and the third most popular drink overall after water and tea.  Beer is brewed from cereal grains — most commonly from malted barley, though wheat, maize (corn), and rice are also used.  During the brewing process, fermentation of the starch sugars in the wort produces ethanol and carbonation in the resulting beer.  Most modern beer is brewed with hops, which add bitterness and other flavours and act as a natural preservative and stabilizing agent.  Other flavouring agents such as gruit, herbs, or fruits may be included or used instead of hops.  In commercial brewing, the natural carbonation effect is often removed during processing and replaced with forced carbonation.
