Gun Hill Joins Growing Roster at Industry City Complex

Gun Hill Brewing Company, a Bronx-based micro-brewery, has opened its first Brooklyn taproom at  Industry City, the 16-building, 6-million square foot creative campus located on the Sunset Park, Brooklyn waterfront. The new 6,249 square-foot space will include a taproom and onsite brewery as an extension of Gun Hill’s dedication to serving the freshest, locally handcrafted beers.

Featured menu items include new, small batch beers brewed onsite and available exclusively at Industry City in addition to long-standing Gun Hill Brewing Company favorites. These beers will feature locally sourced ingredients, true to the signature style and approach that has been Gun Hill Brewery’s since inception.

“Industry City has always been about showing the process behind a product, so full-fledged production facilities with tasting rooms just make sense here,” said Jim Somoza, Managing Director and Partner at Industry City. “Gun Hill joins our bloc of New York-original brewers and distillers whose passion for their product comes through during the tasting experience. The staff here aren’t mixologists or bartenders slinging well liquor– they’re masters of their craft who want to share their knowledge– likely over a beverage.”

Gun Hill Brewing Company joins a vibrant ecosystem of businesses, including a thriving roster of locally owned breweries, distilleries, and tasting rooms where visitors can view the production process up close. Existing vendors include:

“We’re very excited to finally join Industry City. This was a project we were working on pre-COVID, so to see it finally come to fruition is something we are proud of,” said Dave Lopez Co-Managing Partner of Gun Hill Brewing. “We look forward to experimenting and creating some unique beer exclusively for our Taproom here in the very near future.”

Gun Hill Brewing Company was established yards away from the famed Gun Hill Road in the Bronx, the site of a strategic battle of the Revolutionary War where historically, colonists dragged a cannon up the hill in defense of their ideals and fired to force away the British Army. While the brewery lends its name from the historical site, its values and personality reflect the heroes of that time. Today, Gun Hill Brewery utilizes fresh, local ingredients to create brews that are not only unique but have a quality equal to their passion for making it.

Gun Hill Brewing Company is located at 68 34th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232 in Industry City’s Building 6 and is open Tuesday through Friday, 1pm – 10pm and Saturday and Sunday, 12pm – 10pm.
