01

From the record

Summary

Closed UNKNOWN. Founder: Friedrich Wilhelm Gabriel / R. Jäger. Status as recorded: Closed / historical. Historic Berlin Weißbier brewery documented materially by Franz Skarbina's circa-1878 painting of the Gabriel & Jäger brewery garden, preserved by Berlinische Galerie. Exact company chronology remains held pending archive/corporate records.

A summary written during research. The sourced facts are in the sections below.

Tally’s Take

A brewery whose best surviving documentation is a painting. Franz Skarbina painted the Gabriel & Jäger brewery garden around 1878, and the Berlinische Galerie holds it still — so most of what is known about Friedrich Wilhelm Gabriel and R. Jäger's Weißbier brewery comes from an artwork rather than a ledger. The company chronology is held pending archive and corporate records, and both the opening and closing years are unknown. An archive that counted only paperwork would not have this entry at all.

Only the claims above are sourced. Everything else on this page is the archive's own research and has not yet been tied to a document — which is worth knowing rather than hiding.
