Reminds me of the Family Guy episode when Peter and his friends go in one of these and sit in the beer just talking.

Is that copper? If so, why is it still there? It's gorgeous - I hope they leave it alone . . . . .

I bet that fermentation tank just glowed when it was used in production and all polished up. It's worth a small fortune for the copper, but as a vintage fermentation tank it would be priceless...not that you are likely to get it out intact...

Yeah the scap dealers would love to come haul those off.
I like the arch on/in the wall beyond and how you lined it up with the curve of the pipe....

It is amazing to contrast and compare the beauty of old places against the stark utility of new factories, which have no style at all. Thanks for the pics!

in my hometown, a big city, people have found a way to open and strip the copper from a certain type of alum power pole.
they would truck these.

The Brew Kettle alone could bring up to $70,000US not in scrap but the value of the equipment.

If that copper thing had been in sweden it would have surely been stolen by drug addicts.

Im astonished of the lack of grafitti and destruction. It really is a beautiful building.
