Bottling line QC in action. One test is for measuring dissolved oxygen in the beer while the other calculates air in the headspace. After the bottling run we'll do even more testing in the lab. All these steps make sure that we're packaging the highest quality beer.
Belhaven Brewery installed a bottling plant with a greater capacity than could be satisfied by the brewery's own production. Its use was maximised by contract bottling for other brewers, such as this batch of lager newly shrink wrapped for shipment.
This is a colour photograph taken inside an factory workplace. The subject is a man wearing blue overalls with a badge on the left breast. He is placing a plastic wrapped carton of bottles on a stack of similar cartons.
The core of Belhaven Brewery is on a site that has been associated with the industry since medieval times. The present company traces its existence to the eighteenth century and still occupies some buildings from that period but new technologies have prompted new buildings on the site.

"The same degree of care which is exercised throughout the brewing of Stroh's beer is applied in the packaging operation. In this panorama of automation, there are nine bottling and two canning lines. The bottling plant is 395 feet long and 107 feet wide and has a combined capacity of over three and a quarter million bottles and cans daily.
The beer is pumped from the filter rooms to the storage cellars under the bottling machines. Empty cases are unloaded from the trucks and transferred to the conveyors which carry them to the bottle soakers.
Here, all cases are inspected and bottles are placed in the machines where labels are washed off and the bottles are soaked in several successive tanks containing strong washing solutions to insure absolute cleanliness. Then they are washed by a mixture of high pressure air and water and then rinsed. [Note the use of returned already-used bottles to be re-filled.]
After washing, the clean bottles pass from the soaker to the revolving fillers at the rate of 270 per minute and to the crowning machine at the right where the caps are crimped on them."
