Yuengling May Cross 4-Million Barrels With Expansion

From an interview with Dick Yuengling by LVB:

LVB: Any plans for another plant aside from Tampa?

Yuengling: No. We can handle it [extra capacity here]. We’ve added on here [at the Mill Creek Road plant]. Since we’ve built the [Mill Creek] plant [in the late 1980s], we’ve added storage unit tanks. We’ve increased the capacity of this particular plant probably by 600,000-700,000 barrels [per year]. In Tampa, we are also increasing the capacity of that plant down there. That’s going up in capacity so we’ll have a capacity of almost 4 million barrels. We always want to grow in our existing market. That’s always our goal. We get a bigger market share in our existing markets.

    The new brewery did NOT open in the late '80's. More like the 2000s

  2. Thanks prof...that's a LVB editorial comment I think. I thought that was odd.
