Ambler's Forest And Main Brewing Moving, Expanding To Second Pub

The popular local brewery is expanding its operations and moving into a larger home.

AMBLER, PA — One of the Ambler area's most popular establishments in expanding.

Forest and Main Brewing Company announced this week that they are moving their operation to a new brewery and taproom a few blocks north of their current location, in the yellow house on 61 N. Main Street. The new facility will be larger, and will allow Forest and Main to have a greater seating capacity as well as produce more beer.

In addition, the brewery is expanding to a second location, with a new pub coming to 33 East Butler Avenue. It's a space formerly used by Ambler Apparel.

Both of Forest and Main's Curren locations, the House on 61 N. Main Street and the "NewSpace," will be vacated once they move into these new spots.

"It is hard to picture F&M existing without that yellow house," the brewery shared in an emotional announcement. "But for so many reasons, it is truly the right decision for us to leave the property, like a fluffy little bird moving to a new nest. It’ll be sad for sure, and we will clearly miss our time here, but we feel that beyond the physical space, what makes Forest and Main so special is all the people who work here, the people who drink here, and the good vibes we all share. We know we can bring those vibes wherever we land and we can’t wait to be with you again soon.⁣"
