Today, the Fytenburg Brewing Company dba Theodore Fyten Brewing Company dbais housed in the historic horse stables of the Jacob Schmidt and Christopher Stahlmann Breweries, which date back to the 1850's.
Established in 1999, by Tod Fyten, II - great, great, great grandson of Theodore Fyten - the brewery released its famed Fytenburg brews, on draft in the summer of 2012.
Our story begins in Europe, Belgium to be exact.
In the summer of 1869, Theodore Fyten set sail on the steamship, St. Patrick, from Antwerp, Belgium and emigrated from his native Netherlands to St. Paul. He set up shop as a teamster and harness maker and served St. Paul's bustling Upper Levee brewery neighborhood.
​
Two years later, his brother John joined him and set up shop near the falls of St. Anthony, in order to serve North East Minneapolis's brewing community.
​
The two brothers, our great great grandfathers, set the stage for the Fyten family's service to the Twin Cities brewing and beer-loving community for 140 years.
