Mantorville Brewery is the limestone — the '1857' that's the founding's year, the 'oldest' that's the state's claim. The 'caves' is the cooled — the 'bluff' that's the cellar's rock, the 'spring' that's the water's source. The 'Prohibition' is the pivoted — the 'soda pop' that's the product's shift, the 'creamery' that's the building's use.
The 'wrecking ball' is the halved — the '1939' that's the closing's year, the 'war scrap' that's the metal's fate. The 'cottonwoods' is the hid — the '80 years' that's the obscurity's span, the 'forgotten' that's the ruin's state. Mantorville is the unearthed — the 'Olive' that's the rescuer's name, the 'Roman Colosseum' that's the comparison's form.
The file keeps Mantorville: the limestone brewery, the cooled caves, the soda pivot, and the unearthed ruin.
Mantorville Brewery is the archive's Minnesota file — the castle the trees swallowed.
