1972–present · SOUTH BEND AND MISHAWAKA (BOUNDARY); OSCEOLA HAS NO BREWERY GROUND
Osceola has no brewery site, so it has no brewery afterlife; this article is the county grounds', at boundary size, to the present. The Muessel-Drewry's ground, 1408 Elwood Ave., South Bend: brewing ended November 1972; the complex was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on 28 December 2000 (the Muessel/Drewry's Brewery listing), and the former plant stands today in private hands, known as the Omniplex — a register-listed industrial reuse, not a demolition. The Kamm & Schellinger ground, Mishawaka: the brewery consists of three buildings along the St. Joseph River; the plant closed in 1951 and its buildings survive as the city's standing brewery fabric, carried whole in the Mishawaka build and pointed here. Demolitions at plant strength belong to the Oliver/Studebaker industrial record (businesses/exports legs), not to brewing, and none is imported to fill this row. The register fact, the reuse name and the survival of both grounds are the brewing afterlife this county actually has.
