Inscription. This property has been listed in the
National Register
of Historic Places
by the United States Department of the Interior
Built in 1901 for the Lambert Deacon Hull Printing Company, this building is the work of St. Louis polymath Samuel L. Sherer, who was self-taught in architecture, criticism and art history and later became the first director of the Saint Louis Art Museum. Every line and mortar joint of the building speaks to attention to detail, form, texture and color. This building offers a fully realized architectural art, that nonetheless has also been a functional space for creative production since its construction.

The Saint Louis Brewery, home of Schlafly Beer, moved into the building in 1991 as the first new brewery built in St. Louis after Prohibition. It is now the home of The Schlafly Tap Room.
