On Monday, October 20, Roger Davis, managing partner of the Red Hare Brewery, announced that the Red Hare Brewing Company will enhance and expand its current location and serve as an anchor for the Franklin Road Corridor.
Red Hare Brewing Company is situated in an 11,000 square foot warehouse, where it has a 20 barrel brewhouse with a 3,800 barrel fermenting capacity. Red Hare is the first craft brewery to offer beer in cans in Georgia and currently cans all three of their year round beers.
Red Hare has surpassed its forecasts and needs additional space to meet its market demand. By expanding the current location, Red Hare will be able to increase production and add more available jobs to the City’s workforce.
“The Red Hare Brewing Company is a valuable Marietta brand and icon of our great City,” said Mayor Steve Tumlin. “We are proud that after much consideration Red Hare choose to enhance the current location. Red Hare’s calling Franklin Road home is a positive sign of the vibrancy of this 75/41 corridor from Galleria to Town Center and shows their commitment to be a major part of our City.”
“We are grateful for the success of our Brewery and are looking forward to expanding our business in the City of Marietta,” said Roger Davis. “With this new expansion we will be adding as many as 20 new positions over the next three years. By staying in our current location, it demonstrates our support and confidence in Mayor Tumlin’s and City Council’s initiative to redevelop Franklin Road.”
