Tupps Brewery McKinney: A New Chapter in Craft Beer
After a successful run of more than eight years in the craft beer industry, Tupps Brewery McKinney is embarking on an exciting new journey. The move to a new location marks a significant milestone, not just for the brewery, but for the McKinney historic downtown area and the craft beer industry as a whole.
The Grand Transition
Tupps brewery has outgrown its current premises and is set to relocate to the historic site of McKinney Grain. This transition allows for an expansion into a 25,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art production brewery, within a grand total of 40,000 sq. ft. over a picturesque 4-acre landscape. The renovation of a 120-year-old grain mill and the repurposing of grain bins into a retail craft community are just a few highlights of this ambitious project.
Boosting Production Capabilities
The move is not just about a new address; it’s about amplifying Tupps Brewery McKinney’s production capabilities. The new facility will increase the brewery’s annual production from 12,000 barrels to an impressive range between 50,000 and 55,000 barrels. This leap in production is a game-changer, enabling Tupps to meet the growing demands of craft beer enthusiasts more efficiently.
More Than Just a Brewery
Tupps Brewery McKinney is set to become a cultural hub, enhancing the rustic, distinctive, and relaxed atmosphere patrons have come to love. Boasting a spacious outdoor stage, the brewery will host a variety of live music and theater events, further enriching McKinney’s cultural landscape. Additionally, this move plays a strategic role in the redevelopment of east McKinney and the extension of the historic downtown cultural district.
Tangible Benefits for McKinney
The relocation of Tupps Brewery offers significant benefits to the city of McKinney. Apart from revitalizing the east side of the historic downtown area, it also marks the beginning of a cultural shift, bringing energy and attracting other businesses to the area. The move includes a 2% revenue share with the city, underscoring Tupps Brewery’s commitment to community development.
Conclusion
The transition of Tupps Brewery to a new facility is more than just a change of scenery. It’s a testament to the brand‘s evolution, growth, and future potential. Through this significant move, Tupps Brewery McKinney continues to contribute to the flourishing craft beer industry and the cultural enrichment of McKinney’s historic downtown area. Cheers to new beginnings and the continued success of Tupps Brewery!
