USA, MI: City Built Brewing Company LLC to launch by early October

City Built Brewing Company LLC said in a statement on August 10 that it had installed its 10-barrel brewing system and plans to be open by early October.

The brewery, planned for 820 Monroe Ave. NW on the ground floor of the 616 Lofts on Monroe mixed-use development, will be the first brewery in Grand Rapids’ Monroe North neighborhood since Founders Brewing Co. moved downtown in 2007.

Much of the beer will consist of fruit-infused ancient ales and the food menu will feature Puerto Rican and “island inspired plates,” according to the statement.

The brewery owners — Edwin Collazo and David Petroelje — previously told MiBiz they project to brew between 320 and 500 barrels of beer per year and create approximately 40 new jobs.
