Siebel Institute

The Siebel Institute of Technology is a for-profit technical school located in the Lincoln Park neighbourhood of Chicago that focuses on brewing science. The school is the oldest brewing school located in the United States and has been in operation since its founding in 1868 by German immigrant chemist John Ewald Siebel (1845-1919).[1] During Prohibition, the institute diversified by adding courses in baking, refrigeration, engineering, milling, carbonated beverages and related topics; after the repeal of Prohibition, courses not concerned with brewing were discontinued.

In 2013 the institute was moved to the Kendall College’s building.[2] There are satellite campuses in San Diego, Munich, Germany and Montreal, Canada.
