The Grain Belt Brewery, also known as the Minneapolis Brewing Company, is a former brewery building in Northeast, Minneapolis, United States, located north of Broadway St. NE on the east bank of the Mississippi River. Originally the headquarters of the eponymous Minneapolis Brewing Company on its opening in 1892, the building has four distinct architectural styles in homage to the four companies that came together to build it. The building ceased operating as a brewery in 1975, and sat empty in disrepair for many years. After many redevelopment proposals fell through, the property was purchased by Ryan Companies in 2001, was remodeled into offices, and reopened in 2002. It is considered to be one of the city's "most striking industrial buildings from the turn of the century."
