Title:
Mooney's Brewery, Visalia, Calif., 1882
Description:
Michael Mooney arrived in Visalia, CA, in February, 1869. In March, he set up the town's first brewery in this building
at the corner of Main and Garden streets. A notice in the Visalia Delta in the first week of April, 1869, announced "Have
opened a brewery at Main and Garden. It is a good substitute for tea and coffee and just as cheap." Mooney brewed ale and
porter. Mooney moved the brewery to 807 South Court Street in 1875. At the time this photo appeared in Harper's New Monthly
Magazine (November, 1882) the building was mainly used for storage.
