EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1902, showcases the George Ehret Brewery located at 93rd Street in New York City. At the helm of this impressive establishment was George Ehret (1835-1927), an accomplished brewer who would soon make history. Born in Germany, Ehret immigrated to the United States in the mid-19th century and honed his craft in various breweries before striking out on his own. In 1878, he founded the Hell Gate Brewery, which quickly gained notoriety for its exceptional beers. By the turn of the century, the brewery had become the largest in the country, producing over one million barrels of beer annually. The photograph reveals the grandeur of the Hell Gate Brewery in its prime. The towering smokestacks, sprawling buildings, and intricate machinery all speak to the industrial might and innovation of the era. The scene is further enlivened by the bustling activity of workers, horses, and wagons, all contributing to the production process. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when New York City was at the forefront of America's brewing industry. George Ehret's legacy continues to be celebrated, as his contributions to the industry and the city's history remain an enduring testament to his vision and determination.
