AbstractOver the course of the nineteenth century the brewing industry in the United States grew and changed dramatically and created for itself ever more complex and handsome structures. Where an early brewery might have been very small and visually uninspiring, a late nineteenth-century example was large and imposing, highly practical but also attractive to the eye. . . . St. Louis and Cincinnati, the focal points of this paper, were important nineteenth-century brewing centers in the Midwest and, not coincidentally, places with substantial German populations. In the late 1870s they were the third and fourth largest brewing cities in the United States, behind only New York and Philadelphia in their annual production of beer.
