The first phase of the Creemore Springs Brewery expansion started to take shape this week, with builder Cowden Woods on site to erect the steel frame of the addition on the back of the building, which will house several new fermenting tanks and a covered grain silo. Geoff Davies, the brewery’s project and facilities manager, hopes to have this part of the building functional, with beer in the tanks, by June 24. Site works will follow throughout the summer, and the new warehouse will be built on the south end of the building in the fall. Davies said he’s been pleased with the community’s reaction to the construction so far, and encouraged anyone with concerns to get in touch with him. While portions of the site look fairly messy at the moment, with piles of debris left over from the house demolition that occurred earlier this spring, Davies said that will all be cleaned up as soon as half-load limits are removed from area roads, which typically occurs around the beginning of May.
