Samuel Adams Brewery is continuing to invest in its capability
and capacity at its Breinigsville facility and will be adding several tanks for
aging and fermentation processes, said Jessica Paar, spokeswoman for The Boston
Beer Co., the maker of Sam Adams.
Paar said Boston Beer Co. is making these investments to keep
up with the brewing demands as the company introduces new, innovative styles of
beer.
While Paar said the company does not disclose specifics
regarding capital investment projects on an individual brewery basis, she said
the company's latest earnings release showed that capital spending would be
between $100 million and $120 million, which includes investments in the
company's breweries.
In its earnings statement, the company said full-year 2014
capital spending is now estimated to be between $140 million and $180 million,
an increase in the range from the previously released estimate of $100 million
to $130 million.
In 2013, the company added more than 70 new positions at the
Breinigsville site, Paar said. An undisclosed number of jobs will be added with
the 2014 expansion.
"We're proud to be an employer in Pennsylvania and that
our growth has enabled us to continue to hire," Paar said.
