Cornerstone: HO Structure Kit - MILWAUKEE BEER & ALE (933-3024)

Please read all instructions and study the drawings before starting — directions for the interior graphics are printed directly on that sheet. All parts are styrene plastic, so use compatible glue. If you wish to decorate your model, use paints for plastic models. With appropriate details and signs, your finished model fits almost any era.
Suitable for use from the late 19th century to the present, your new model can be a stand-alone industry or the central point of a larger facility. Found in the older industrial areas of large cities and requiring constant rail service, a brewery is ideal for a busy
branchline, or the central theme of a compact switching layout.
Over time, newer buildings of different materials and styles were added to the brewery complex, and it is very common to see
structures from several periods side by side. A bottling plant can be modeled with a large building like the Champion Packing Company (933-3048), George Roberts Printing Co. (933-3046) or Hardwood Furniture Company (933-3044). New bottles, bottle caps, cans and kegs can be delivered in box cars or trucks. Be sure to add a discharge chute on the side of the building where crushed cans or broken glass (called cullet) can be loaded inlo a waiting hopper or gondola to be recycled.
Breweries use tremendous amounts of barley, corn, rice and wheat, which is delivered to elevators built on or near the complex.
For a steam-era scene, the Rural Elevator (933-3036) can be used, while the ADM Elevator (933-3022) fits newer settings.
For a good general overview of a modem brewery, see Blitz-Weinhard Brewing Company by Harry Bonham in the April, 1998 issue of Railroad Model Craftsman.
