Here at 12 West Jefferson Street, only a short block from the Biscuit Stadium, stands the Brew-Pub, now part of the Riverfront development. The building was constructed in 1913 as a heavy equipment storage facility by the Gulf, Mobile & Ohio Railroad. It is of brick bearing-wall construction, with plank floors supported by 14-inch square heart pine timber columns. It boasts a still operating Otis freight elevator built from an 1895 patent. When the GM&O gave up, the structure became a Teague Hardware warehouse, and then in 1995 it became the home of the Montgomery Brewing Company, and since has become the Railyard Brewing Company.
