Barton Breweries
The Barton Breweries are a collection of three major breweries in the city of Barton. The Breweries are known for their large red brick chimneys. The Breweries are located in the dockyard area of Barton, and are protected by high walls and security guards. From here, much of Tersten's commercial alcohol production is maintained, supplied with products from the Krasnodar Vinyards. Beer, Vodka, Gin, Wine, and Whiskey are the main exports of the breweries, able to produce a vast quantity of alcoholic products for shipment. It is an extremely lucrative industry, and is dominated by the Booze Barons, who control the Breweries between themselves. With the City and the Breweries under the influence of the Booze Barons, stories of organised corruption and crime gangs are common, and it is widely accepted that most security employed by the Breweries also have unsavoury ties.
The Breweries were constructed in 28 PC by the Vinkahrov Family, using funds from the newly formed Tersten State. Under the People's Republic of Lordania, the Breweries were officially owned by the State, but operations fell to a trio of families, who often competed for political favour. It was not until the Great Revolution that the families united under Zelig Vinkahrov against the People's Republic, becoming the modern Booze Barons during the Interregnum, a period which saw the Breweries expand massively into the modern complex it is today.
