Brewery hopes to be part of S. Division revival

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A small Grandville brewery has bought a nearly 5,000-square-foot building along South Division Avenue in Grand Rapids, hoping to be part of the area’s revitalization effort.

Arvon Brewing Co., which first started selling craft beer in 2017, has quickly outgrown its humble 700-square-foot production center in a Grandville warehouse that has capacity for only eight people.

“Due to the size of our production center, it’s been pretty hard for people to get our product at times.” co-founder Brett Bristol said. “Currently there’s only 18 places that we rotate through and we really struggle to keep their taps filled.”

The new location not only will allow Arvon to double production, but it will also add a taproom for the first time.

“We’re excited to be a part of the Beer City community. That’s got a lot of people are excited. They come to Grand Rapids for Beer City, USA,” Bristol said. “Now they’ll be able to walk into our taproom and get their beer and try different things that we have rather than try to chase it around town and see if they can find it.”
