Guided Brewery Tours
Offered hourly throughout the day. Explore the ruins of the 19th century brewery of German immigrant H.L. Kreische. At its peak in 1878, Kreische's brewery was the 3rd largest Texas brewery in operation, and these ruins convey the ingenuity and skill of this stonemason and brewer.
