From the record
Summary
The 1885 Modoc County directory explicitly lists Bofinger & Kilian as 'Adin brewery & saloon,' directly proving local production. Specialist California brewery indexing preserves earlier Jonas & Bofinger, Bedford & Bofinger and Palace Brewery phases in Adin from the late 1870s-1880s. Exact legal continuity and endpoints remain held.

Only the claims above are sourced. Everything else on this page is the archive's own research and has not yet been tied to a document — which is worth knowing rather than hiding.
