Massive tanks piling up along the Rappahannock River in King George are bound for the Coors beer plant in Shenandoah Valley. 40 very large fermentation tanks are being shipped from Germany, unloaded in King George, and then trucked to Elkton via Routes 3, 29, and 33. The tanks will be used in an expansion of the Coors plant in Elkton. Currently, the Elkton plant just bottles beer, but it plans to start brewing and bottling in early 2007. There are some photos of the tanks, and they are huge.
