Mast Landing Brewing Co., based in Westbrook, plans to open a large tasting room and pilot brewing facility in Freeport this summer.

The 11,000-square-foot space in the Freeport Crossing shopping mall will have two floors and a spacious outdoor seating area. The second floor can be used as a 4,000-square-foot space for private events. The company has not yet released an exact opening date.

Mast Landing will use the on-site brewing facility to develop small-batch beers that will be sold exclusively at the Freeport location, along with some of the brewery’s flagship beers.

Still to come: A culinary partner who will use the adjacent kitchen space to make lunch and dinner daily for tasting room customers, as well as a catering menu for private events.

Mast Landing, founded in 2016, has a tasting room and production facility in Westbrook. In 2019 the Brewers Association named it one of the fastest-growing craft breweries in America.
