Subject: Re: Brewery Occupancy Clasification

Breweries and distilleries are different in that the alcohol content of
beer is significantly less than distilled spirits. That being said, I
did a brewery last year and did it as OH2. There was a lot of
uncertainty about what was going where (storage excluded). OH2 is a safe
bet and I wouldn't contest it unless there is a water supply problem.
