Please join Historic Saint Paul at Summit Brewery (910 Montreal Circle)on April 10th, 2008 for a toast to our proud brewing past. Doug Hoverson, the author of Land of Amber Waters: The History of Brewing in Minnesota, will tell the story of the Saint Paul beer industry: from the small breweries that gave way to large companies with regional and national prominence to the vibrant beer culture of today.Following Hoverson’s remarks, we will look to the future of two of Saint Paul most prominent neighborhood landmarks: the Hamm and Schmidt breweries. These vacant structures are poised for rebirth as community assets. Representatives from the Asian Pacific Cultural Center and Brewtown, LLC will share their visions for the redevelopment of Hamm and Schmidt, respectively.
