New Belgium Ups Forth Collins Capacity

Dear Client:New Belgium Brewing is nearing completion on a 140,000-barrel expansion project at its Fort Collins brewery to accommodate growth while building a second facility in Asheville, per company statement. The expansion is designed to meet demand through 2015, when the new North Carolina facility is slated to come online with a capacity of 400,000 barrels. Sales director Joe Menetre said the move gives New Belgium "the ability to grow brands in existing markets while adding additional territories through 2015."
