Brooklyn Brewery is preparing to leave its longtime home for greener pastures just a few blocks away.

After 30 years on North 11th Street, the brewery is set to relocate to a larger, airier space on Wythe Avenue this fall, and will bid farewell to its original location with a rollicking goodbye party on Aug. 29.

“We’ve spent thirty years building something special on North 11th Street, and now we have the chance to take everything we’ve learned — about beer, hospitality, and community — and bring it to life in a space truly worthy of what we have become,” said Brooklyn Brewery CEO Eric Ottaway, in a statement.

The celebrations honoring America’s 250th anniversary culminated in the re-enactment of the historic Battle of Brooklyn on Aug. 22, when more than more than 300 reenactors dressed in period costumes and armed with reproduction fi****ms retraced the first and largest battle of the American War for Independence when the British Crown Forces, Hessian troops, and Loyalist forces attacked General George Washington’s Continental Army on the fields of what later would become Prospect Park on Aug. 27, 1776.

Presented by Prospect Park Alliance, Old Stone House of Brooklyn and the Brigade of the American Revolution, Saturday’s large-scale tactical reenactment of the battle drew thousands of onlookers who watched the skirmishes between the British Army and the American troops.

“I love history. It’s an opportunity to present history as it really happened; tell the stories of the men on the ground, the men and women who really made this happen, who really saw it and put it into action. You know, who suffered and fought and died for what they believed was the rightful governance of these 13 little colonies,” said reenactor Jack Gatlin.
