It soon grew to be a prominent regional brewery, and at its height, it was the largest brewery in the south, and was one of two New Orleans breweries to survive Prohibition. Its French Quarter brewery remains a landmark in New Orleans, as after brewing operations ceased, the facility was turned into a mixed use space containing residences, shops, and restaurants.
Description: Jackson Brewery, a New Orleans landmark, was once the brewing and bottling house of Jax Beer from 1890 until 1974. The building was purchased, renovated and turned into a place to shop and/or grab a bite to eat while taking in the views of the Mississippi River. There is, also, a museum devoted to the brewery which is free and open to the public.
