From Brooklyn via MLive:

The Brooklyn Brewery left beer lovers crying in their mugs Monday as it announced plans to jilt the borough of Ralph Kramden and build its new plant across the Verrazano Bridge in Staten Island….


To get plans flowing, the company has made a grant application to the New York City Regional Economic Development Council to cover some of the $70 million needed to build the 200,000-square-foot facility on Staten Island’s western shore. 

Brooklyn Brewery described the proposed plant as a “state-of-the-art 400,000- expandable to 1,000,000-barrel brewery on 20-25 acres” — a vast stretch of land that the company’s general manager, Eric Ottaway, said was impossible to find in the brewery’s home borough.
