Side Project Brewing in Maplewood on Wednesday added more barrels for beer production — stacked on existing barrels.
Four in a row were installed in the summer at Side Project. On Wednesday three more were added on top of the four.
The barrels, known as foeders (or foedres) in the brewing business, are made of Missouri white oak by Foeder Crafters, a Missouri business, and the only producer of foeders in the United States.
