I beleive that the brewery is the Maier Zobelein Brewery. They were famous for brew 102. During my Noir festival this weekend, quite a few of the street shots of police cars zooming around town, featured billboards for Brew 102.

here is a wikimapia page about the brewery showing where it was located

here a link for a 2005 los angels times article about the brewery

and here's one more link with images from the freeway system. the last image on the page is a 1974 image looking west on the 101 past the brewery. the caption is interesting, as the 101 makes a jog at this point to bypass the brewery which is still there while the brewery building is long gone
