Dry Dock Opening 2nd Brewery In CO & Canning

imageFrom CafeSociety:

Dry Dock Brewing, the 2009 Small Brewer of the Year and a darling of the Colorado craft beer scene, will open a huge second brewery in north Aurora later this year. The company will also begin canning four of its most popular beers with a packaging system is has ordered from Wild Goose Engineering in Boulder.

The 30,000-square-foot former distribution warehouse at 2801 Tower Road is on six acres off I-70, just south of Green Valley Ranch and the proposed 85-acre Gaylord Entertainment hotel and conference center project near Tower and 64th Avenue.

When it is operational -- probably in November -- the facility will be capable of brewing 12,000 barrels right off the bat, or about 430 percent more than what Dry Dock makes at its current location; the brewery cranked out 2,800 barrels of beer in 2011.  Full details here.
