Have you noticed the building going up on Mooretown Rd in the photo below ?
And now the Big News!
Brass Cannon will be moving to a brand new building at 5476 Mooretown Road. They are also be upgrading from a 4 barrel brewing system up to 20 barrels. and their new tasting room will be about 3 times the size of the current one. Projected opening date for the new location is March 2016 but the Toano location will be open until the switch over.
The new tasting room will be nearly 3 times the size of the current one, and will have both bar and table seating as well as plans for an outdoor beer garden area.
In these endeavors, location is key. Brass Cannon wanted a space that was closer to town than they are now, and readily accessible for guests. The new location lands them very close to Alewerks Brewing Company. BCB sees this as an opportunity for collaboration, and the combined presence of both breweries should be a positive thing for consumers and serve as a greater drawing power to get both locals and tourists out enjoying delicious beer.
Brass Cannon will be throwing a party at the brewery on Saturday, December 12. Good times and $1 off pints will be flowing from opening time at noon until at least 11pm.
Kickstarter Campaign
To help with the expansion, BCB is running a Kickstarter campaign. Funds raised will go primarily towards improvements to the new tap room. Details and a lovely video are at their campaign site.
