The Ebling Brewing Company, founded in 1868, was a brewery located in the South Bronx when German was the second language to English there.
[1] The company advertised their technique of aging their beer in "natural rock caves."
The Ebling Brewing Company headquarters were razed and a parking lot was created over the site.
In 2009, a developer, The Joy Construction Corporation, uncovered the caves as they began building a 600-unit low- and moderate-income housing on the site.
Employees of the Joy Construction Corporation hoped to find buried beer memorabilia treasure.
