Tally’s Take
In 1815 a brewer recorded only as Hardy operated opposite what is now rue Hertel, near Aaron Hart's brewery. The given name is unknown and the operating span is unknown, and both stay that way rather than being filled from the surrounding dates. What the entry does establish is density: two breweries starting in the same year, in the same small town, within sight of one another.
