Union Brewery's Rise in Iowa City Post Civil War

This look back covers the Union Brewery at Linn and Market in Iowa City built by Simeon Hotz in 1867, with Antone Geiger, and bookkeeper Chris Senner. It details its architecture, 50 barrel daily capacity, and later ownership changes including Graf and Senner, dry law impact, and the 1903 retirement of Senner turning the business to Graf’s sons.

Graf Brewery and tunnels shape Iowa City history

The Graf brothers expanded what became Graf Bottling Works after taking over Iowa City Mineral Springs Bottling Works from their mother Anne. The 1917 Prohibition era sale led to the building’s repurposing, later becoming Brewery Square and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. Historic tunnels beneath the brewery drew explorers in 1950, 2000, and 2023 as archaeologists used 3D laser scanning to map the caverns.
