HistoryIn 1822, Ann Dawson built the building that is now Manayunk Brewery. It was used as a cotton mill. In 1912, the Krook family bought the building and turned it into a woolen mill. However, as textile manufacturing moved overseas, they closed their doors and sold it to Harry Renner IV in 1992. He established Manayunk Brewing Company and Restaurant and tapped the first batch of beer on October 17, 1996. Since the historical moment, the company has brewed over 700 types of beers. In 2004, Mr. Renner?s daughter took over the building. She now runs the brewery and restaurant with Mike Rose, her business partner. They have been hosting weddings for more than 15 years.Location Located along Schuylkill River, Manayunk Brewing Company is 18 minutes from downtown Philadelphia and 22 minutes from Philadelphia International Airport.
