Brewers Row (North 11th Street between Berry Street and Wythe Avenue) This patch of North 11th Street was named Brewers Row in 2000 to remember the once thriving hops industry in Northern Brooklyn. At the turn of the twentieth century there were nearly fifty breweries in Williamsburg and Bushwick, and Brooklyn produced more beer than Detroit and Milwaukee combined. German immigrants making use of Long Island pure water were the main actors here. The post-prohibition turn toward national-brand brewing spelled the end of such happier (hoppier?) times.
   
Ephemeral New York
When Miss Rheingold ruled New York City
October 17, 2009
(...)
Miss Rheingold helped make the beer New York’s most popular in the 1950s and 1960s. Rheingold goes way back in the city; it opened in 1883 in Bushwick on the nabe’s famed “Brewers Row,” which earned its moniker because so many German-American beer companies began there.
 
Alas, they shut down in 1976, but the brand was revived in the 1990s. A new Miss Rheingold contest was also reinstated recently, but the contestants are all female bartenders.

There was an area in Bushwick known as “Brewers’ Row” where 11 breweries occupied a 12-block area. Many had large underground caverns that were ideal for lager fermentation because they maintained a cool temperature year round. Before Prohibition, many New York breweries owned retail outlets in the city.
   
Some of the better known Brooklyn breweries were the Consumers Brewing Co., the Excelsior Brewing Co., the Federal Brewing Co., Indian Wharf Brewing Co., Old Dutch Brewing Co., Piel Brothers Brewing Co., Schlitz Brewing Co., and Welz & Zerwick Brewing Co.
