Operating from 1851 to 1959. Fire destroyed a significant portion of the original brewery in 1872. However, this disaster provided Blatz with an opportunity to enlarge and update his facilities with the latest brewing technology. In 1875, Blatz became the first Milwaukee brewery to establish a bottling department to package beer to ship nationally. This bottled beer won top prize at the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia. By the 1880s, Blatz increased production to over 100,000 barrels a year and expanded the brewery into a complex that spread across three city blocks.
