Wow! You're so lucky you got to see the old buildings. I found this spot accidentally in January this year on my way home during a road trip. Wend back via Greyhound during spring break, and spent the day again with a couple friends. The entire site is incredible, but it was definitely under a bit of surveillance. In fact, we were never able to get to the old buildings. The brick one on the north side of the road looked boring now, honestly, because of construction. It was missing the entire back wall. The newer side (brewery and bottling plant) were amazing though. The bottling plant was intense; it was pretty clear workers had just left, and there was electricity. The basement was the spookiest part of the whole thing. Some squatters had somehow gotten a hospital bed frame down there! These are some of my photos from explores. I did just read there was a fire there at the office building in October though, unfortunately.
