Small Brewery

I found a couple of approx 1 gallon beer kegs made of metal while working. Thought they would make nice storage tanks for a brewery. They are painted and lettered for a german beer. Any thoughts on where I might find pictures or plans for such a project? Chris

Hi Chris04084
No idea with the size of kegs you have found sounds more like a large
brewery.
At any rate a large multi floor brick industrial building with a seperate boiler house and a couple of ware houses to go with it.
Possably conected by narrow gauge tracks would do the trick
A brewery is quite a large concern ocupieing a large area.
So I would think capturing the feel is more the thing to try and do.
You could try a google search.
regards John

Thanks John, I was thinking more on the lines of a Micro-Brewery. Use 1-2 kegs as storage tanks. Chris

Sounds like a good idea.
An image search would bring up some photos to give a reference for painting etc...

Look up the old Rainer Brewery in Seattle on google. I railfan just behind the wherehouse, Its big but it has all you would need for a start to go off of.
