Alchemy & Science Still Struggles to Find D.C. Real Estate

Alchemy & Science still struggles to find real estate in Washington DC, so they may look elsewhere.  This new start-up is funded in part by Boston Beer so while it does have financing, it still has no permanent location.  This from the Washington Post:

Newman said he was close to leasing some land — he wouldn’t identify where — but had to ask the landlord if he could hold off on paying rent until he got city approval for the brewery. The landlord signed a deal with another tenant. “It was a great location for me. The problem was I needed a contingency for it in my lease to accommodate the zoning changes,” he said.

Discouraged by an inability to find a suitable space, Newman said he is now spending more time focused on expansion to other cities. But he hasn’t given up. “I’d love to do a brewery in D.C. I think we could really add to the local craft brew scene,” he said.
