Paine owned and operated a fruit and confectionary store in Augusta, and he brewed small beer alongside pop beer. His store was originally on the corner of Water Street and Winthrop, but in 1870 he moved shop to a new location on the same street, across from Granite Hall.<\/p>\n

By 1872, Paine had moved to Sewall Street near Western Avenue. Charles E. Albee worked for Paine there in 1873 and 1874, according to the city directory, where he was listed as a \u201cpop beer\u201d manufacturer. Paine appeared to stay in business until 1877.<\/p>\n
