Nashville Historical Brewery Trail
A virtual tour of Music City's unique brewing history featuring the city's beer and brewery related historical markers.
Explore Nashville's unique beer history through a video tour of our city's brewing historical markers, narrated by Scott Mertie, author of Nashville Brewing (Arcadia Publishing, 2006).
The Historical Commission of Metropolitan Nashville and Davidson has erected seven historical markers related to Nashville’s beer and brewing history. These markers were sponsored by the Mertie Family.
Below you will find the markers with links to historic video tours, photos and locations, so you can explore our city's brewing history, whether you are in Nashville or browsing from afar.
