E-Malt.com News article: USA, WA: Chuckanut Brewery and Kitchen to open a second brewery in the Skagit River Valley

Chuckanut Brewery and Kitchen is opening a second brewery, seattlepi.com reported on November 12.

One of Washington’s most highly decorated breweries, Chuckanut Brewery is building a second brewery in the Skagit River Valley, near the Skagit Regional Airport. They’ll continue to brew beer and serve food at the Bellingham location, but the new brewery will allow them to brew larger quantities and increase their overall production numbers drastically.

The current brewery in Bellingham has been operating at capacity (over 2,500 barrels per year) for some time. Chuckanut spent two years searching for a site large enough to build its new production facility, but with the help of the Port of Skagit decided on the location near the airport. They hope to have the new facility open in the spring of 2016.
