Foundation Brewing expanding Industrial Way facilities
The Portland-based brewery Foundation Brewing Co. is increasing its footprint at One Industrial Way, when it expands into three spaces once used by fellow Portland brewery Bissell Brothers Brewing Co., which is moving to Thompson’s Point.
According to a release from Foundation, the expansion will bring the brewery’s total space to 7,500 square feet — allowing the company to increase is fermentation capacity, in addition to offering a larger tasting room with expanded offerings and hours.
“We are fortunate to have had the opportunity to launch our brewery here, and being part of this community, which has become known simply as ‘The Park,’ has been simply amazing from day one,” Foundation co-founder John Bonney said in the release. “From the very origins of the craft beer industry in Maine, to the latest riffs on diverse and divergent beer styles, the energy and enthusiasm for craft beer and its culture is palpable here like nowhere else.”
The expanded tasting room is slated to open by midsummer, and no significant tasting room closures are expected during the construction.
“The expansion will give us the opportunity to bring out new brands that support our focus on using classic styles as the inspiration for brewing beers that push conventional boundaries,” Joel Mahaffey, Foundation’s co-founder and head brewer, said in the release.
