KALAMAZOO, MI - Beef tongue and cheek, oysters and house-smoked barbeque are some eclectic dishes slated to be served at the future Arcadia Brewing Co. location in Kalamazoo.

Tim Suprise, president of the brewery, released additional renderings of Arcadia West and new details about its upcoming brewery in Kalamazoo, including menu details and plans for a kayak and boat landing portal, on Tuesday.

Suprise, of Portage, is building a 30,000-square-foot facility on the 2.6-acre parcel adjacent to the Kalamazoo River, a 4,500-square-foot barbecue-themed brewpub, a 1,500-square-foot office area and a 24,000-square-foot beer production facility at 701 E. Michigan Ave.

The facility will give Arcadia the initial production capacity to make around 30,000 barrels a year, with the potential to produce 60,000 barrels annually and is slated to open in December 2013. The $6.2 million project will create 30 to 40 jobs.

"ÂThe all wood-fired smoke house will be used to serve up traditional American barbeque favorites as well as some unconventional dishes," a statement released Tuesday reads. "ÂÂDrawing inspiration from Middle Eastern and South American cuisine and utilizing Berber and Turkish-inspired spice rubs will give Arcadia West's menu a distinctive quality. Fish selections will include blue fish, cod, oysters and tuna, which will arrive regularly from Maine. Michigan whitefish and other house-cured meats like ham, pastrami, corned beef, sausage, salami and prosciutto will also have a presence on the menu."

The brewery will feature German beer hall seating, with long tables, and retractable garage doors that will allow people to easily sit in or outdoors. Guests will order food at a counter, but servers or "beer specialists" will visit tables to take beverage orders.

"ÂÂExtensive research has gone into minimizing water waste, creatively using spent grain waste, and locally sourcing many food items," the statement reads, adding that reclaimed wood will be used to construct bar and beer tables and repurposed metal will be used for light fixtures.

Arcadia West will be accessible by canoe, kayak, and bike, according to the release, and a "pet-friendly" beer garden with outdoor seating is still part of the blueprints.
