    Moose, I'm not sure if you mentioned this before so I apologize in advance if you did: what material are you using to build the walls? Is that styrene or cardstock? It looks textured but can't really tell with the resolution of the pictures you posted. Nicely done so far so pat yourself on the back for me:)(y) Can't wait to see how it looks when you get the windows and doors in there.

    Looking good there Mr. Moose!
    Good to see buildings being raised on the layout.

    If that's gonna be a brewery, you'll need some vertical storage tanks, correct?
    Make some similar to these that look like a Six Pack, but roll your own brand.

    @Allen H @freddy_fo @BNSF FAN @Calzephyr

    Thank you very much, good sirs! Your compliments and suggestions are very much appreciated! :)

    Allen, Moose likey your storage tank idea. Just wouldn't have room, and besides, demand for Orca brews is sooo high, no need for so much storage. ;)

    Freddy, Moose using JTT Scenery Products n-scale brick plastic sheets for the walls.

    From a business point of view, that's a good problem to have.
    However Moose, I think those are storage tanks for the water? ;)

    Yes, indeedy, Allen. Good business is what Orca Brewing is all about!
    :)

    The sign in yer photo seems to indicate that they hold beer.
    :unsure:

    Are you trying to convince this moose that the storage tank in the Moose's layout's warehouse does NOT contain Guinness?
    :eek:

    Mooseland (TM) construction crew appears to have finished the brewery kiln roof, but for some unknown reason, they painted it white. How odd... o_O

    Moose'll have to have someone correct that, one of these days... :unsure:

    That roof looks like it belongs on a Pagoda.
