Pre-Prohibition Brewery Geography


Consumers' Brewery St. Louis


I’ve spent most of the free time I’ve had over the last two years studying the geography of pre-prohibition breweries. My intention has been to write a book or book-length work on the subject but that is still years away from completion. In the meantime, I’ve decided to pick away at the subject here with short thematic discussions.
