Verona-based Wisconsin Brewing Co. plans to increase its production capacity by nearly 25% in response to strong demand for locally brewed craft beer, the company announced on September 18.

"This expansion is allowing us to dramatically increase the quantity of beer we produce while also maintaining the quality control vital to our ongoing success," said Carl Nolen, president and chief executive officer, in a statement.

Wisconsin Brewing started selling beer in 2013. The company was founded by Nolen and other former executives of Middleton-based Capital Brewery Co.

“The company, with 15 full-time and 30 part-time employees, expects to sell around 20,000 barrels in 2015,” Nolen said. “Wisconsin Brewing sold 13,000 barrels last year,” he added.
