With the additional space, owner and founder Randy Sprecher says the brewery hopes to accommodate larger groups and catered meetings.

"We are looking to focus more on corporate meetings allowing corporate clients a very unique meeting experience," says Sprecher, who plans a grand opening for June.

Sprecher says more than 16,000 visitors tour his facility annually, and considering a typical tour can accommodate more than 100 people, it's clear the renovation is a necessity.

Currently, Sprecher serves samples of its beer at the end of the tours, and for kids, there is a choice of five sodas. This spring, the brewery will unveil a new soda, "Ravin Red," a gourmet drink made with cherries, cranberries and ginseng. Sprecher says this high-energy drink is "is far less sweet than other sodas, and I'm proud of the fact that all of the ingredients are from Wisconsin."

Sprecher also says he hopes to have licensing secured to allow the sale of his beer at the brewery. Until now, the brewery could only serve sample beers on tours. He says Sprecher will offer bottles and two-liter growlers that can be filled at the brewery.
