Beer... flowing through the estate...

What a riot.  The possible unknown toxic spill is Coors Light, Blue Moon, etc. One  photo shows a guy in a rowboat with a handicap icon on it's stern, near the riverbank with scores of beer cases strewn from a boxcar on it, toasting the photographer with a beer. In the town of Paradise.

l recall two situations with California wine being 'tapped' while the cars were sitting in a yard - actually, one was on a spur to be delivered but the gate was locked.
