If You Built It, They Will Come...

The Intelligencer, a Belleville area newspaper, is reporting that Hastings County Economic Development manager Andrew Redden has initiated a study involving six commerce students from Queen's University to develop a business case for brewing beer in the area.

Redden states in the article that Hastings County, which is well known for their abundance of cheese factories, would make a great place for one or two local breweries and he has already identified a number of potential sites where such a brewery could operate.

Beer and cheese in Hastings County - sounds good to me. It would also make for a great beery day trip: Church Key, Barley Days, Waupoos, hop farms (which are less than an hours drive from the area)
