ROHRBACHEXPANSION2007-09-19-1190238525.jpgRohrbach Brewing Company is expanding downtown. The business has purchased a building in the Public Market, specifically

Railroad Street
, and will convert the space into a brewery. Rohrbach credits a boom in the craft beer industry.


Besides the brewery, the new facility will also house a tasting room, shop and will offer tours.


Rohrbach moved out of Rochester four years ago, so it's excited to be moving back.


"I live in the city and I really love the city.  I think it's kind of the center, it's the spoke, everybody can come to it.  I think we're very lucky,” says Rohrbach Brewing owner John Urlaub. “While we're not opening a restaurant in this facility, it's just going to be for production, we want to be very customer friendly, we want people to come and taste some of our products."


Construction is already underway and should be completed by the end of the year. There are also plans to renovate its restaurant and microbrewery on

Buffalo Road
.
