E-Malt.com News article: USA, MD: Union Craft Brewing Company completes expansion

Baltimore, Maryland’s Union Craft Brewing Company has completed its second expansion to increase capacity by 65% and is releasing its third canned beer offering, Shanken News Daily reported on March 26.

Union’s Blackwing Lager, a dark yet light-bodied German-style Schwarzbier, will now be produced in cans alongside Duckpin Pale Ale and Balt Altbier. The cans are available at retailers across Maryland and Washington, D.C. The additional capacity at the brewery will allow Union to meet demand for its existing beers while encouraging experimentation with new beer styles.

The expansion adds three new fermentation tanks and a 3,000-square-foot unit next to the current brewery space. It is the second time since opening in June 2012 that the brewery has expanded.
