E-Malt.com News article: USA, WI: Vintage Brewing Co. breaks ground on new facility in Sauk City

Officials at Vintage Brewing Co. broke ground on their new facility in Sauk City on November 21, WKOW reported.

The plans include a 10,000 square-foot brewery space in the sub-level of the building and upstairs will feature a restaurant, bar, indoor and outdoor seating areas and a seasonal beer garden.

It will also be able to accommodate events like wedding receptions up to 250 people.

The new building will overlook the Wisconsin River. Owners say this will allow them to get more creative with their brewing.

"It possibly frees up Whitney Way which is the smaller of the two breweries for more creative endeavors so we can do more test batches there," said Brewmaster Scott Manning. "There have been talks of doing more sours, which are really hot category right now."

The additional brewing capacity will allow Vintage to brew five times more beer than it can right now at its Whitney Way location. The brewery and restaurant are expected to open in the Fall of 2017, and will employ 80 to 100 people at the new location.
