Construction Begins

It begins. Construction at the brewery officially kicked off this weekend with the wall dividing the brewery space and our tenant's space (Blue Marble Energy). The wall went up quicker than we thought and should be finished by the end of the week. A great Thanksgiving treat. Now, we move on to laying out the plumbing and electrical and start cutting the drains for the brewery, cleaning station and keg filler. We've posted some pictures of the wall construction to give a flavor of the space.

Random news:
A local artist and friend asked us to brew up some UniversAle (the flagship beer) for his gallery opening on December 6. The beer has happily finished primary fermentation and is now dryhopping and maturing in anticipation of its happy consumption. The first edition t-shirts and pint glasses have arrived and are available at the brewery. Please contact Matt at matt@fremontbrewing.com if you would like to grab one of the limited edition long-sleeve shirts or pint glasses.

We Have A Location

Sweet, sweet day. We now have a place to call home. After searching in Seattle for just the right place, we came up with Lucky 7's and landed in Fremont, which has been part of our lives for 15 years. The opportunity to settle the brewery in Fremont and become part of the art and small business culture on the water was too good to pass up. So, to commemorate our new location, we have changed the name of the brewery to Fremont Brewing Company. Please visit our web site soon and we will begin to put up pictures of our construction.  
Our address is 3409 Woodland Park Avenue North but don't come by just yet as we are not always there (yet).
