MillerCoors Mulls End of Gettelman Brewery Buildings

A major site of Milwaukee’s brewing history could soon be reduced to rubble.

In a city that was and still is known as the “Brewing Capitol of the World”, two adjoining former Adam Gettelman Brewery structures, dating to the earliest beginning of that brewery in 1856, stand vacant and almost forgotten on the western fringe of the Miller Brewery complex in Milwaukee.

It has recently been revealed, thanks to the enterprising reporting of the Journal Sentinel newspaper, that those structures and their connecting beer cellars below are slated for demolition.
