[brewery district - history and facts]
The Brewery District complements the peaceful charm of German
Village, which it borders, by offering great entertainment with
its small micro-breweries that operate in the old-world
tradition, fine restaurants, a winery, retail shopping and a
summer concert venue.

[that was then]
Like German Village, the Brewery District was established by German
immigrants in the early 19th century. And like German Village, the
Brewery District was adversely affected by prohibition and the Great Depression.
Before prohibition, however, the Brewery District was thriving
with an eclectic mix of businesses from the obvious brewing
companies-the two largest being the Hoster Brewery and the
Gambrenis Brewery-to a fertilizer company (now the site of
upscale condos).
Many of the streets in the area have taken their names from
prominent families and other factors. Sycamore Street is named
after the abundance of Sycamore trees in the area. The first
street to unfortunately be paved over was Forest Street.
[this is now]
Now, a line of century-old buildings, which once housed the
Hoster Brewery, Schlee Bavarian Brewery and others, now serve as
a mixed-use residential, business and entertainment district.
The tagline, “It’s a brand new look at some Old World charm,”
captures the feel of the Brewery District. Connected to German
Village, the Brewery District is a special blend of yesterday
and today combining preserved architecture with newer, funky
entertainment venues to create a great place to go for a day or
an evening out.
The Brewery District appeals to the younger crowd with a
selection of brewpubs and micro-breweries that serve up unique
recipes for ales and lagers complemented by a choice of great
eateries.
