A local Brisbane brewery is expanding to its third site in Ipswich at Springfield Central.

Ballistic Beer Co owner David Kitchen says he was skeptical at first, but the area is under-serviced in non-chain food and drink venues.

Ballistic currently has a Salisbury brewing site and a West End Alehouse and Kitchen, but wants to also focus on offering a full food menu for the new site.

The family-friendly establishment will be moving in to the building of a former pub.
