Atwater Brewery has grown considerably since the last two years, modelmedia.com reported on May, 21.
It has upped its brewing capacity from 7,000 barrels to 30,000 barrels. Last year it brewed 12,000 barrels of beer and is on track to brew another 22,000 barrels. The brewery's beers are currently in 15 states and its overall goal is to hit 100,000 barrels by 2015.
"The demand for our brand is hot," says Mark Rieth, owner of Atwater Brewery. "Plus local sales. About 60 percent of our sales are from Michigan."
Atwater Brewery is also working toward expanding its reach. The company is renovating a church in Grosse Pointe Park into a brewpub. The brewery is also looking at expanding its current production facility to a new building on the riverfront and opening a tap room in the downtown area, however, both projects are still in the preliminary planning stages.
