AUDIT ROW #306 · A BOTTLING HOUSE IS NOT A BREWERY · THE OUTSIDE-BREWER TENURE TEST

The one drinks plant the town's record does hold is Hardenbrook's Bottling Works — a bottling house, which bottles other makers' product — and this article carries it in the alcohol leg under exactly that description, without inflating it into the brewery the leg could not find.The bottling works' own course (its founding, hands, and end) stands in Businesses at the strength the business pass gave it and is pointed to; this section adds only the two discipline points — bottling is not brewing, and no branch tenure is documented — and names the settler for the tenure question, the state brewing-permit and Sanborn succession records.

Principal sources: Businesses (Hardenbrook's Bottling Works), pointed to; settlers named — Indiana brewing-permit records and Sanborn sheet successions (the outside-tenure question).
