BREW NEWS


*** BEAR ISLAND BREWING ***

Time for a New Garage!
"One step closer to moving out of the garage: The City Council approval last night was a big green light for our expansion into the Old Firehouse #6.  We are excited and thrilled but still have a few more hurdles to jump over before it is official.  Thank you to all of our supporters, we look forward to updating you in the near future when we have the keys in hand! Cheers!"
