The place where the miners obtained their 'Bridge Brew, this, in their minds, may be the most valuable historic building in the town. The fact that it was the first commercial building in The Pass built of stone doesn't hurt, though.

Lethbridge Brewing and Malting
Originally designed as a two-storey building, this retail and wholesale distribution point for the Lethbridge Brewing and Malting Company opened in 1907 as the first stone commercial building in the Crowsnest Pass. Manager Jacob Reuter lived in a house immediately behind this building, on State Street (now 21 Avenue). Later it was the Corner Pool Room, and in 1919 was briefly owned by the Great War Veterans' Association, a forerunner of the Canadian Legion. A series of occupants and uses followed, but the building's exterior appearance is essentially unchanged.
