Brooklyn Brewery is planning to construct a new brewing facility in New York with an investment of around $70m.
To be located on Staten Island's western shore, the proposed brewery is expected to cover an area of around 200,000ft2.
The brewery will have a capacity to produce one million barrels of beer annually, upon becoming operational in 2017.
It is expected to create 92 full-time jobs for the local people.
