E-Malt.com News article: Canada, Ont.: Mill Street Brewery one step closer to expansion

Mill Street Brewery is one step closer to calling a vacant building on Wellington Street home, Ottawa, as city hall's planning committee approved changing the zoning for the area, formerly occupied by the Old Mill Restaurant, CFRA reported on July, 4.

The Toronto brewery plans to open a new restaurant at the location, which will include a micro-brewery and retail store.

The brewery has won a number of awards since opening in late 2002, including Golden Tap Awards for Best Toronto Microbrewery ('04-'08) and Best Toronto Beer (for Tankhouse Ale: '04-'07).

Mill Street was also named "Canadian Brewery of the Year" at the Canadian Brewing Awards in 2007, 2008, and 2009.

City council will be asked to approve the proposal at a meeting next week.
