In Austin Texas there is a beer distributor that gets beer in 50' single door boxcars from Mexico. I was surprised as I thought all beer traveled in plug door cars I guess there is an exception to the rules.
You could also receive loaded cars of empty cans or bottles for filling or raw materials to make their own. Depending on the size of company they might also either receive packaging likes boxes or they could receive raw materials to print their own.
Coors at one time shipped unfinished beer in tank cars to various distributors that would then unload the beer and make it into beer at the final destination.
Grain hoppers of grain or hops could also be brought in for making beer from scratch.
