PEI's Gahan Brewery Opens Bottling & Production Facility

Charlottetown's only brewery, the Gahan House Brewery, has officially opened a bottling and production facility on Walker drive, not far from the Gahan House on Sydney Street, according to the article in today's The Guardian.

According to the article, Sir John A's Honey Wheat and Island Red will continue to be bottled (they're currently being bottled and sold through ten PEI Liquor Commission stores), but on a larger scale, enough to cover stores across the island. Kegs will also be available for sale at the new brewery location. With the increase in volume, Kevin Murphy, the President of Gahan Brewery, states in the article that they are now in a better position to begin exporting their beer to other provinces, including Ontario.

The Gahan House (brewpub) will continue with operations as normal.
