Yes the two use the same stainless steel tanks for storage, but she walks by a two vessel brewhosue with a mash/lauter tun and kettle/whirlpool configuration. You can literally see the door they shovel the spent grain out of on the thing. As well as a hot liquor tank and grain hopper. Why would a dairy have a mash kettle? What are they brewing the milk???

Oh Mr Gilligan, thought you could sneak that past the audience, "oh it's a building with big stainless steel tanks in it, nobody will notice!" Well this ASSHOLE who worked in a craft brewery for 3 years did! Take that you Hollywood fucker!

But yeah that annoyed me a little.

A brewhouse is specifically for extracting the wort from the barley for fermentation so it'd make no sense for a dairy plant to have one

Could it extract the bones from the person mash before it ferments

Hypothetically yeah, the kettle gets hot enough you could boil bones to make a sort of broth.

But a dairy wouldn't have a brew kettle in it.
