Flying Dog Announces New 2nd Brewery Plans (Frederick, MD)

imageFrom The Frederick News Post:

There’s more than just beer brewing at Flying Dog, which announced plans Tuesday to open a 150,000-square-foot brewery in the city of Frederick.

The brewery made a $2.55 million offer Monday to buy 31 acres of vacant farmland off Bowmans Farm Road east of Frederick Municipal Airport, according to Erin Weston, communications director for the brewery. The site would serve as the location of a $50 million project to construct a larger, state-of-the-art brewery, that would either replace or expand on the manufacturing at its company’s Wedgewood Boulevard property.

The project will create 150 new jobs and eventually produce up to 700,000 barrels of beer per year, according to a statement released Tuesday. Flying Dog’s current brewery has a capacity of 100,000 barrels.
