After two years in business on Denver's northeast side, Caution Brewing announced that it will open a second brewery in Lakewood, westword.com reported on May, 20.
Cautions' existing brewery will stay open as well.
The new location will have a smaller brewhouse - three barrels as opposed to five at the existing brewery - but a larger taproom. It will also be situated in a high-traffic shopping center on Wadsworth, rather than an industrial business park.
There is only one other independent brewery in Lakewood, the Ironworks Brewery & Pub, so Caution owner Danny Wang says it presented the perfect opportunity.
"It's Colorado's fifth biggest city, so we were surprised that there aren't any other production breweries there," says Wang. "The idea for us is to be a neighborhood brewery and to be more retail-friendly."
Caution-Lakewood will have twelve taps, which will give Wang the space to brew different styles of beer while pouring his flagships as well.
One of those flagships is Lao Wang Lager, which Wang had originally brewed for his parents' Federal Boulevard restaurant, Lao Wang Noodle House, using a secret blend of spices that they also use in their kitchen.
When the new brewery opens, however, it will come complete with a two-head canning machine, so that Wang can sell the beer to independent Asian restaurants all over the Denver area.
Lao Wang Lager will be sold in four-packs of sixteen-ounce cans.
Wang hopes to open the second location in October.
