ANCHOR BREWING TO BUILD WATERFRONT BREWERY The San
Francisco Giants and Anchor Brewing have announced that Anchor will build a
second facility on the San Francisco waterfront. Anchor Brewing will occupy
what is now Pier 48 with production and distribution facilities (artist
rendering), a restaurant, museum and other public attractions. The
212,000-square-foot space in the Giants’ Mission Rock development will not
replace Anchor’s existing plant on Potrero Hill, but add capacity. The
company’s capacity would nearly quadruple from 180,000 to 680,000 barrels a
year. "This is big news for us. We can now further expand our domestic
market (Anchor is sold in every state) and open up new international markets,"
CEO Keith Greggor told the San Francisco Chronicle. "It’s also a huge
commitment to San Francisco." If everything proceeds on schedule,
construction could begin in late 2014 and brewing in 2016.

Doesn't it sound fun. We of course support Anchor Brewing because BAIF is a supplier. Ask Jamie - her customer. Now we just have to figure out how to barter bags for bottles.
Try their tour - very fun.
This is going to be awesome!
Jamie, I expect you to be able to line up special tours...
