More details on 5 Rabbit Brewery’s expansion
Would have liked to have seen a link or some credit to Chicago Beer Society’s David Phillips for breaking this a few days ago but publications that feel threatened rarely do link to others. (End soap box). Nevertheless, a snippet of the full details on 5 Rabbit’s expansion…
They will install a 30-barrel brewing system with 60-barrel fermenters that they plan to upgrade to 120-barrel fermenters in the next year. The brewery’s maximum output, which wouldn’t be realized for several years, would be about 35,000 barrels per year (for comparison sake, that’s more than double what Half Acre will be able to produce after its expansion).
