Waldmann Brewery

About

Step back in time at Waldmann Brewery, a true gem nestled in St. Paul's West 7th neighborhood. This isn't just any brewery; it's a living testament to history, boasting the title of Saint Paul's oldest surviving commercial building. Dating back to the Civil War era, Waldmann re-opened its doors in 2017 after a remarkable 154-year hiatus, inviting you to experience the charm of a bygone era. As you step inside, be captivated by the original wood stoves, virgin pinewood floors, and hand-blown window glass. Antique steamboat chairs, whale oil lamps (burning paraffin), and a treasure trove of period maps, photographs, and memorabilia transport you to the 19th century. Don't miss the chance to snap a selfie with Bismark the Bison upstairs! But Waldmann is more than just a historical marvel; it's also a haven for craft beer enthusiasts. Indulge in traditional German lagers, weissbiers, and alts, perfectly paired with hand-crafted wursts, hearty soups, fresh salads, and unique desserts. Located just a mile from the Xcel Energy Center and downtown St. Paul, Waldmann Brewery offers a truly unforgettable experience that blends history, hospitality, and exceptional brews. Prost!
