Lavery Brewing Company is preparing to unveil its expanded brewpub this Friday.

It has shut down through Thursday to complete the final phase of construction, according to a post Monday on social media.

The project will double the brewery's seating. It also includes a larger kitchen, expanded bar and new look.

Lavery acquired the space formerly occupied by Hungry Howie's Pizza in September.

The brewpub is located at 128 W. 12th St. in downtown Erie.
