Freetown Not So Free

December 16, 2006 By Jay Brooks

According to the Herald News (in Fall River, Massachusetts) late Saturday, the Boston Beer Co. is rethinking their plans to build a new brewery in Freetown, Massachusetts. The cost now appears to be approximately 60-80% more than originally anticipated. As a result, the company is “mulling over” alternatives such as acquiring an existing brewery or expanding one of the two they currently own. Company spokesperson Michelle Sullivan carefully and diplomatically adds they have “not ruled out the option of building a brewery in Freetown, asserting that the company is still in the evaluation stage.”
