Sierra Nevada says no to Tennessee plant

ALCOA, Tenn. — Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. has decided against locating a brewery in Alcoa, even after state lawmakers changed a law to entice the venture to east Tennessee, a Blount County economic development executive says.

A spokesman for the Blount Partnership said today that the Chico-based company notified them that the site in Alcoa is no longer being considered, the Associated Press reported.

Blount Partnership spokesman Jeff Muir said the family-owned brewing company told the partnership that differences from California's climate were a factor in the decision.

As an enticement for the $200 million plant and some 100 jobs, Tennessee lawmakers had passed a measure allowing on-site sales of high-alcohol beer and sampling products at a taproom and restaurant.

Sierra Nevada said last spring that it would like to expand somewhere east of the Mississippi River, and hoped to have a decision by the end of summer. A Blount County official earlier told the newspaper Blount Today that Alcoa and Roanoke, Va., where the two finalists for the plant. Sierra Nevada officials have not commented on particular sites.

It's still 4 hours away but a lot closer than 3 time zones! :noon

And Virginia has earthquakes, so they'll feel right at home.

If, in fact, Roanoke gets the plant :gl :gl

We still have a bottle of BB in the basement. :p Unfortunately, they don't distribute to WI any more (I'm still in MN, though) and we're now 10 min from a great liquor store in Hudson.
