Soon, the work being put into transforming the Navy Yard will be rewarded with an ice cold one.

[Brooklyn Brewery](/?s=brooklyn+brewery) is moving to [Building 77](/?s=building+77) in the Navy Yard, where it will set up (s)hop with its office, a brewery, and even a rooftop restaurant and beer garden [starting by early 2018](http://brooklynbrewery.com/blog/brewery-expansion/bigger-badder-brooklyn-er/?ref=bklyner.com).

“We’ll be opening a brewery on the ground floor, right next to our good friends at Russ & Daughters and close to our Barrel Aging Facility in Building 269,” wrote the brewery on[ its website.](http://brooklynbrewery.com/blog/brewery-expansion/bigger-badder-brooklyn-er/?ref=bklyner.com)

Brooklyn Brewery is currently headquartered in Williamsburg. There are still [nine years left ](/blog/2016/02/24/brooklyn-brewery-hop-to-brooklyn-navy-yard-industry-city/)on the brewery’s current lease in Williamsburg and they do not intend to renew.

Building 77 is currently undergoing [extensive renovations.](/blog/2015/12/08/building-77-update-there-are-now-windows/) Building 77 will be anchored by [a food court](/blog/2016/02/01/coming-soon-russ-daughters-to-anchor-building-77s-brooklyn-navy-yard-food-court/) with several other high profile tenants like Russ & Daughters.

Brooklyn Brewery is leasing 75,000 square feet and that the lease is for 40 years, [according](http://www.wsj.com/articles/brooklyn-brewery-taps-navy-yard-for-expansion-1463349915?ref=bklyner.com) to the Wall Street Journal. Additionally, the Journal [reports](http://www.wsj.com/articles/brooklyn-brewery-taps-navy-yard-for-expansion-1463349915?ref=bklyner.com) that Brooklyn Brewery is considering an additional location in Staten Island.

“By being in Staten Island near the port, we’ll reduce our transit costs significantly,” co-founder Steve Hindy [told](http://www.wsj.com/articles/brooklyn-brewery-taps-navy-yard-for-expansion-1463349915?ref=bklyner.com) the Journal.

The move had been rumored since[ earlier this year.](/blog/2016/02/24/brooklyn-brewery-hop-to-brooklyn-navy-yard-industry-city/) The brewery had also been scouting a potential location in Sunset Park.

The Navy Yard is fast becoming an epicurean center, and Brooklyn Brewery is clearly seizing on that.

“Our move, along with Russ & Daughters, Brooklyn Grange, Brooklyn Roasting Company, Mast Brothers Chocolate, and many more to come, signifies a new era for the hardest working section of New York City,” declared Brooklyn Brewery on its[ blog.](http://brooklynbrewery.com/blog/brewery-expansion/bigger-badder-brooklyn-er/?ref=bklyner.com)
