Upstreet BBQ Brewhouse will combine a brewery and a restaurant
UpstreetCraft Brewery is expanding to Dartmouth, N.S., this fall.
The brewery is partnering with Halifax restaurant owner Bill Pratt on the project.
The new venture,calledUpstreetBBQBrewhouse,will primarily be a restaurant but there will be beer produced in-house at the Dartmouth location too, said Mitch Cobb, the CEO ofUpstreetCraft Brewery.
He said the partnership with Pratt on the project is a great chance for the brewery to grow.
"We thought it was a really great opportunity for us, because Bill has a really great track record in the restaurant industry and to combine that with our experience in brewing, we thought it would be a great partnership," he said.
"We are really excited about the opportunity in Halifax."
Cobb said they're planning to open the restaurant by mid-September.
