MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. (Inside INdiana Business) — A Michigan City-based brewery is planning a big expansion. Burn ‘Em Brewing says it will invest nearly $2 million to acquire and renovate a former warehouse building in the city’s downtown and create up to 30 full-time jobs.
The Economic Development Corp. Michigan City says the new facility is expected to nearly double production and expand distribution. The location will also include an event center, taproom, full-scratch kitchen and patio.
“It is important to us to keep our business here in Michigan City. We have been on the outskirts of town for almost seven years now, and downtown is important to us as we feel it will bring us closer to the city and its people,” said Steve Murray, co-founder and head brewer at Burn ‘Em Brewing. “We feel that we will be able to participate and give back to the city better with a closer proximity to downtown.”
