Some breweries were able to stay in business by producing "near-beer" which was very low alcohol, some switched over to bottling sodas or other beverages, some became Ice-houses or other related businesses. Rainier Brewing Co. was in an active brewing city. San Francisco, CA was listed as having 83 breweries, which is quite a few.
