GREENDALE
Our Greendale brewery is located inside Southridge Mall! (But fear not, you don't have to go in the mall to find us.... just use Google!) From the dining area you can see our brewhouse and three of our seven 10 barrel (310 gallon) fermentors. But the vast majority of our brewing set-up is in the basement...where we have four more 10 barrel fermentors, two 20 barrel fermentors, and about 22 beer-brite tanks that hold finished beer. We also do all of our clean barrel aging and canning in this cellar of Southridge as well. Once a month look for fresh cans of your Explorium favorites! We release cans and bottles of barrel aged beers on a annual basis.
THIRD WARD
Our Third Ward brewery has a pretty sweet set-up as well! While you're dining, check out the tanks in the north east corner of the building. This collection of tanks consists of our 10 barrel brewhouse, six 10 barrel fermentors, and two 10 barrel lagering tanks. If you're visiting on a day when Ryan is brewing, you'll smell the tantalizing aromas of your favorite Explorium Brews being prepared just for you! In the cellar we have our cold storage which contains 16 beer-brite tanks. In addition, our cellar at the Pritzlaff Building houses our sour barrel-aged beer collection, a fun stop to visit on our brewery tour! In our dining room, we have two fermenters called Foeders, large white oak barrels used to ferment sour beers.
