AIArchitect, March 17, 2006 - Grain Belt Brew House Receives National Preservation Award |
 | | The Grain Belt Brew House, designed by nationally renowned brewery architects Frederick Wolff and William Lehle, is part of a larger, 14-acre complex that comprised the Brew House, which included a boiler house, a German-style tavern, a warehouse of large grain bins, a bottling house, and an office. |
 | | Grain Belt beer was popular in the upper Midwest from its inception well into the 1960s and came in amber glass bottles and cans, becoming the flagship brand of the Minneapolis Brewing Company. |
 | | The redevelopment of the Grain Belt Brew House is serving as a catalyst for new office, restaurant, and residential development in its neighborhood, as well as new preservation projects in the area. |
