BREWERY IGNITER
H.G. Fenton Company launched Brewery Igniter, San Diego’s turnkey
brewing facility, to help new and smaller brewers overcome the high
upfront capital costs and long construction and production timelines
associated with launching or expanding a brewing business.
The first two Brewery Igniter locations came on the market in mid-2014
in Miramar where Pure Project Brewing debuted its Costa Rica-inspired
brews and PB-based Amplified Aleworks expanded its production
capabilities.
Up next is CRAFT at Brewery Igniter North Park, a site on El Cajon
Boulevard with three spaces for brewers. Pariah Brewing has announced
it will occupy one of the spaces and two additional brewers will be
announcing soon.
All Brewery Igniter facilities come equipped with state-of-the-art, fullyfunctional brewing systems and tasting rooms. Entrepreneur brewers
can rent the space and start production immediately so that their
product gets to market faster with drastically reduced upfront capital
investment and risk.
Typically, a startup microbrewer must invest hundreds of thousands of
dollars in brewing equipment, manage construction expenses and
logistics and wait for a liquor license and their equipment to be delivered
and installed before they can brew, pour and sell their first pint. The
Brewery Igniter solution provides the space and all of the equipment to
produce and sell craft beer, so that a startup microbrewery can begin
selling product as soon as it gets its ABC license, which can take as little
as two months.
