A new mico-brewery may soon set up shop in downtown Dundas.
The owner Flat Rock Cellars winery in Jordan is asking the city to rezone the old Valley City Manufacturing plant on Hatt street to allow for the brewery.
Ed Madronich tells the CBC, he believes Dundas already draws a tourist crowd with its restaurants and pubs, making it an ideal destination for a brewery with tours and samples.
The chair of the Downtown Dundas Business Improvement Area, says there appears to be lots of support from the business community.
According to the LCBO, Craft beer is the fastest growing market for the board, with sales up 45 per cent in 2011.
