Brooklyn Brewery, the Williamsburg-based beer purveyor that has been faulted by some for producing a majority of its product in Utica, has significantly expanded its local facilities. The new space, located next door to its existing complex on North 11th Street, makes the brewery 14 times larger, and will now enable the company to produce most of its beer in Brooklyn.
