In the Massachusetts and New England region, the opportunities for contract brewing have been extremely limited. Currently under development with plans to open in spring of 2016, Dorchester Brewing will offer craft brewers a full range of opportunities including, production, packaging and marketing support in a state-of-the-art facility. The future brewery will also feature tours, a 2,000+ square foot tasting room and a collaborative workspace open to the local startup community.
