John Brumer, co-founder of Southern Pines Brewing Company, prepares to transfer beer from a fermenting tank into a brite tank at the brewery in Southern Pines, N.C., Sept. 2, 2014. Once beer is transferred into a brite tank, it is called "finished or clarified beer" and will soon be ready to be put into kegs for distribution. (Photo by Timothy L.
