Switchyard Brewing Company announced they have chosen the former RCA/Thompson site, located at 1320 S. Rogers St., as the destination brewpub’s future location. The 1.3 acre area will house a 10,500 square foot facility, an onsite parking lot & a large outdoor patio.
“Like many American start-up companies, our dream began several years ago on the workbench of a two-car garage,” Switchyard Brewing co-founder Kurtis Cummings said in the release. “After two years of developing our business plan, walking through potential sites and perfecting our craft, we are incredibly excited to build near the future Switchyard Park”
( 58-acre stretch of land the City of Bloomington plans to turn into a park.)
The facility is being designed by local architect Ryan Strauser. It will be inspired by the founders’ traveling experiences.
Switchyard has also launched a Kickstarter campaign called #ShareOurCraft. Donors are given benefits based on the amount they contribute. Some will have a custom engraving in a block that will be used in the building’s construction. Others will receive handmade beer steins or tickets to the brewery’s soft opening.
