Janesville’s historic breweries are the focus of an upcoming program hosted by the Rock County Historical Society.

Historian Robert Bier says the first part of a program hosted by the Rock County Historical will focus on artifacts that have been uncovered over the last five or six year from the North Side Brewery.

Participants will also be invited to visit one of the excavation sites where ruins are still visible near the Kiwanis Trail and Mercyhealth Hospital and Trauma Center.

The program will be held September 10th and 17th at 2:00 p.m. at the Rock County Historical Society campus.
