E-Malt.com News article: USA, MA: New brewery may open in Abington soon
Brewery news

A local brewery could be on tap for Abington, MA, The Enterprise reported on August 13.

Patrick Eddy will appear before the the Abington Zoning Board of Appeals at 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 15 as the next step of bringing a brewery to the town.

Eddy is seeking to open Tenth District Brewing, “a small scale production brewery,” at 491 Washington St. The location is the former site of the Extreme Fantasy Body Art & Piercing Studio.
The brewery would be “open to the public for bottle ‘growler’ fills,” according to its application. Growlers are typically jugs that can be purchased by customers and filled from a tap in a brewery, and then they are brought back when the customer needs a refill.
The application also states that the brewery would produce “beer to be distributed to resale accounts.”

When reached by phone, Eddy said he did not wish to comment on the project at this time out of respect for the ongoing application process.

If approved, Tenth District Brewing would be the second brewery to come to the region in recent months.

In late June, four Whitman natives opened Old Colony Brewing on Route 27 in their hometown.

The brewery, which offers five different beers and produces about 50 gallons a week, has been popular since it opened, frequently drawing a line out the door and filling growlers until their kegs run dry.

The brewery, at 571 Temple St., is open on Saturday nights and offers 32-ounce and 64-ounce growlers, which it fills with beer brewed from recipes the men created as home brewers about five years ago.
