E-Malt.com News article: USA, CO: Dry Dock Brewing Company reports very positive results for 2015

In 2015, Dry Dock Brewing Company increased its production by almost 5,000 barrels, filled approximately 3 million cans of its Home Fleet beers, took home two medals from the Great American Beer Festival, and celebrated its 10th anniversary, among many other milestones, Brewbound reported on January 13.

Dry Dock’s South Dock facility brewed more than 1,300 barrels of beer in 2015, while the North Dock production facility brewed 18,000 barrels of Dry Dock and Steamworks Brewing beer (approximately 15,000 barrels of Dry Dock and 3,000 barrels of Steamworks beer). Surpassing the 15,000 barrel mark in 2014 qualified Dry Dock as a Regional Brewery, which according to the Brewers Association is a brewery with an annual beer production of between 15,000 and 6,000,000 barrels.

In 2015, North Dock also canned approximately 3 million cans of its Home Fleet beers: Apricot Blonde, Amber Ale, Hop Abomination IPA, Wheat Beer, and Vanilla Porter.

Dry Dock Brewing Company was the first brewery in Aurora, Colorado that began as a small speakeasy-style bar next door to its sister business, The Brew Hut, at 15120 E. Hampden Avenue. To-date, it’s one of Colorado’s top producing breweries made possible by its second production and canning facility North Dock, the closest Colorado craft brewery to Denver International Airport.
