Wow! I worked at the brewery at the time they closed it down in September 1996. It’s been so sad seeing it just stand there and rot all these years. The employees there were more like family than co-workers and we still try to get together at least once a year. All this change is both encouraging and heartbreaking. My grandfather worked there as well as my father. I learned to swim in the Olympic sized pool there as a child. Thanks for posting and sharing this video. The memories are flooding back.

I enjoyed many a Lone Star beer during the 70's and 80's. It was the National Beer of Texas.

I’ve heard the same thing you stated in the video. The plans to develop it similar to the Pearl.

Neither Lone Star or Pearl should have been closed. The greed of Anheuser Busch and Strogh is the real reason why these breweries were shut down!
