USA, AL: Two new breweries scheduled to open in Mobile next year
The port city of Mobile is getting into the craft beer boom.
WKRG-TV reports that two new breweries are scheduled to open next year in Mobile.
The former Crystal Ice Co. warehouse is being renovated to house Haint Blue Brewing. A few streets away, an old Goodyear Tire Center is being transformed into Serda Brewing Co.
Keith Sherill says he hopes to get Haint Blue Brewing open in early 2017, and the other company is expected to open in the summer.
The city’s board of adjustment recently approved changes to get both breweries off the ground.
The Alabama Brewer’s Guild currently lists more than two dozen small breweries operating in the state, but none is in Mobile. Recent changes in state alcohol laws have allowed breweries to flourish.
