It looks like a new brewery is on the way to the Fort Point district of Boston.
According to The Feast, a Brookline home brewer and his wife have plans in place to open Trillium Brewery somewhere in the Fort Point neighborhood. The article states that the proposed brewery might possibly have an adjacent tasting room where visitors would be able to try some of the beers offered by Trillium, as well as what would apparently be some more limited edition brews.
[March 15, 2012 update: Don't expect a tasting room at the brewery, as a note sent to us from Trillium indicates that they will not be able to use the retail space for tastings.]
The folks behind the planned brewery currently have a Trilluim blog that mentions some of the beers they currently make, such as an American wild ale, a Belgian honey wit, an imperial red IPA, an oatmeal stout, and a pale ale.
A Zoning Board meeting will be held on July 12 to look into the plan to bring Trillium Brewery to Fort Point. [July 12 update: A Twitter post by Universal Hub indicates that the Zoning Board has given the brewery its approval to operate at 369 Congress Street. Universal Hub also mentions that the brewery will be able to make 1,000 barrels of beer per year.]
[March 14, 2012 update: According to their blog, Trillium Brewing Co. is planning to open in August.]
[March 20, 2013 update: Nearly two years after first reporting about it, Trillium Brewing Co. says that it has opened its retail shop and is launching their flagship pale farmhouse-style ale. The blog post goes on to say that Trillium will be open on Thursdays and Fridays from 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM (growler fills and merchandise will be offered, but no samplings will be available as of yet).
