Actually, I kind of like that industrial look. It gives the place some honest character, like a working factory. A clean, perfect space can feel a bit cold to me.
Laugh at myself every time I try to fix piping in my own house, pretty sure the exposed boiler at this brewery would've been a huge improvement over what I got. Last time I tried to solder a pipe, I melted a hole through my floor and had to call my landlord crying. At least their mess is intentional and probably passes code, mine looks like a toddler with a blowtorch got creative. So yeah, the factory vibe might be cool, but I'd kill for a clean wall and a fire extinguisher that actually works at this point.
