Yuengling is required to report its output for tax purposes.
This is where the gov't docs are kept.

Conveyer system and piping leading to cooling tanks

Fellow fans crowning to see the magical caning machines!

Ray didn't used to look quite this evil. Amazing what facial hair can do!

A group of hard-core fans we met while sampling the sweet nectar

Cans speeding by at dizzying speeds

Kettle you've seen before

Cool murals to commemorate the keg makers and bottle washers

Since none of my pictures are ever good enough to frame, I had to take this shot!
