Coronado Brewing To Begin Canning in Early 2016

CORONADO, CA – September 8 – Coronado Brewing has been hard at work the last few months to increase the efficiency and capacity of their brewery. The current World Beer Cup Champion brewery will be expanding its capacity to 65,000 barrels thanks to the multi-million dollar renovation plan including the recent addition of four 240-barrel fermenters at the end of August. In addition to the fermenters, the brewery has been adding and upgrading some key components to the brewery to help increase efficiency.

The brewery has recently secured an adjacent building at their San Diego brewery location. They plan to use the building for dry storage and office space starting in September. The future use of the building is still open to a variety of options, one being a new brew house.

Some of the more exciting news to announce is that Coronado will begin canning in early 2016. They hope to have the canning line in place by the end of the year.

"We have been growing at a very high rate the last few years, it was time for us to make some big changes to the brewery to help us maintain the pace" said Brandon Richards, vice president of sales and marketing. "We have been trying to find more space in the brewery to allow us to add a canning line and that was accomplished."
