Tech/Engineering - Nutrition / Schnapps?
German term or phrase: Kornbrenner
Is this a distillery that makes Schnapps? If so, what is the English name for it? It occurs in the name that I have to translate, "Bundesverband Deutscher Kornbrenner".

grain distiller
Explanation:
However, pursuant to § 81 of the Spirits Monopoly Act, grain spirit that is not utilised, in a state in which it is ready for consumption, by the producer itself is to be delivered to the Deutsche Kornbranntwein-Verwertungsstelle GmbH (DKV, German Authority for the Utilisation of Grain Spirits), which was registered by the Spirits Monopoly Administration of the German Reich as an association of grain spirit distillers that is entitled to accept and utilise grain spirit pursuant to § 82 of the Spirits Monopoly Act . . .

From the beginning, the spirits monopoly has also pursued agricultural policy objectives (see above under I 1). As the Federal Ministry of Finances and the Bundesverband Deutscher Kornbrenner (Federal Association of German Grain Distillers) have plausibly stated, these objectives have, contrary to the complainants' assumption, not become obsolete.
