I read the headlines and tweets late last week that Green Flash Brewing is expanding in Lincoln, Nebraska, a move to increase its Midwestern distribution. I had skimmed a couple of articles before I learned that Green Flash found a unique method of expansion. It is taking over an existing 10,000 square foot turnkey facility, which includes 2,000 square feet of full-service restaurant space. The location is the former home of Ploughshare Brewing Company. I thought it strange that this Good Beer Hunting article on Green Flash's decision omitted the Ploughshare angle, because to me it seems important
This seems like a savvy move by Green Flash. Unlike its move to Virginia Beach, where it took over three years to build and open its brewery, Green Flash expects to operate its Lincoln facility by the end of the year. In related news, I had a Green Flash West Coast IPA while out at dinner one night last week, and it is still one heck of a beer.
