Sketches from New York: a lager beer brewery at Guttenberg, on the Hudson River, 1864. 'The Teutonic population of New York [and] the neighbouring Brooklyn, Hoboken, and Jersey City, amounts to about 150,000; every one of safely be counted upon, as one of the consumers of their national has become an 'institution' of the land, and, during the summer months at least, its consumption by the other citizens of New York would alone keep a respectable number of breweries in full in Bavaria, so in New York, most of the great breweries have bier gartens or saloons annexed to them, in which the refreshing beverage is dispensed cool and fresh from the vaults. Conspicuous on the right bank of the Hudson River, about five miles above New York, stands a tall, white, tower-like structure, with a red roof. This is the great Guttenburg brewery, built against those grand rocks called the 'Palisades,' in which its immense cellars and storehouses are excavated. In the top story of this is a spacious hall containing billiard-tables, a piano, and a bar for the lager beer and the pleasant vintages of the Rhine'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
