During construction, the tasting room will be closed and no tours will be offered, but the brewery will be open for retail sales on the weekend.
Castle Island Brewery, which opened in 2015, recently installed three new 60-barrel fermentation tanks, allowing for an increase in brewing capacity from 3,500 barrels-a-year to 7,000.
