USA, MI: Gravel Bottom Craft Brewery & Supply to open new Ada location by the end of the year

Gravel Bottom Craft Brewery & Supply will have a new Ada location by the end of the year, MLive.com reported on August 14.

The brewery plans to relocate to a new building near the corner of Ada Drive and Fulton Street next to the new Kingma's Market.

The new location, at 452 Ada Drive, will feature a larger taproom, expanded tap offerings, food and extensive on-site brewery capacity. The 2,500-square-foot brewery will also include a 75-seat indoor taproom and an outdoor patio offering up to 50 seats.

Gravel Bottom will continue operations at 418 Ada Drive until its new site is complete by the end of the year.

"We have built a great following in Ada and look forward to helping make Ada a destination as we continue to support local events like Beers at the Bridge, Brats and Bonfires and the Ada Chili Cook-Off." said Matt Michiels, owner of Gravel Bottom Craft Brewery & Supply, in a statement.

With the new space, Gravel Bottom will upgrade its brewing equipment and expand craft beer choices.

"We are adding a small kitchen as well, which will allow us the opportunity to pair our beers with food and provide our customers with an enhanced craft beer experience," Michiels said.

The business is planning to open a location closer to Grand Rapids.
