Southwestern Brewery and Ice Company, Historic brewery and ice factory in East Downtown Albuquerque, United States.

The Southwestern Brewery and Ice Company features industrial architecture with red brick walls adjacent to the BNSF railroad tracks in East Downtown Albuquerque.

Founded in 1888 by Don and Harry Rankin, the brewery operated until 1917 when statewide Prohibition laws forced the closure of beer production operations.

The facility represents an essential part of New Mexico's industrial development as one of the few remaining 19th-century commercial structures in downtown Albuquerque.

Located at 601 Commercial Street Northeast, the building received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places and New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties.

The company's Glorieta Beer product achieved distribution success throughout the southwest while the ice production continued until 1997.
