Founders Begins $2 Million Expansion This Week--340K Barrels Per Year

imageThe 4th major expansion is 5 years from Founders started this week.  Details from Mlive:

In October, Founders received city approval for a 9,000-square-foot building addition that will eat up a row of parking spaces on the north side of the soon-to-be 115-barrel brewhouse. The new space will hold additional fermentation tanks used for carbonating and conditioning beer prior to bottling and kegging.

The $2 million expansion project, which also includes some internal software and system upgrades, should yield the brewery an additional 165,000-some barrels of annual production capacity, which would boost Founders’ total annual beer output to about 340,000 barrels per year.
