The brewery's beers earned a following at area bars and festivals, but Rainy Daze wasn't able to obtain regulatory approval for a full-time tasting room in Silverdale. Rainy Daze Brewing opened on Olympic View Loop near Bangor in 2012. "It's nice to work with someone we know and trust, who also brews," Hood said. Sound sold its original brewing equipment to Rainy Daze and will transfer its lease on Bovela Lane to the Silverdale brewery. "We're going to keep it pretty simple," Hood said. Hood said the new Sound Brewery also will serve food, though it won't boast an extravagant menu.

Sound is obtaining a restaurant-type liquor license that will allow it to sell beer and wine and offer more guest taps. "We've been talking about it for a long time and trying to find another location," he said. Sound Brewery founder and manager Mark Hood said he wanted to find a bigger home for the busy tasting room as well. The move enabled the brewery to exponentially increase beer production and keep pace with growing sales. The new tasting room will mark a second phase of expansion on Viking Avenue for Sound, which shifted its brewing operation from Bovela Lane to an old truck repair shop on Viking a year ago. The closing of Campana's creates expansion opportunities for two Kitsap craft breweries.Ĭampana will lease the 5,700-square-foot restaurant building to Sound Brewery, which expects to open a tasting room there as early as June 1. The Poulsbo Campana's will hold a customer appreciation event April 30 and make a large donation to North Kitsap Fishline before shutting its doors for good. The Campana family operated a second location in Silverdale for a number of years. The Italian restaurant first opened in Bremerton in 1970 and moved to Poulsbo in 1976. Campana said he was grateful to the restaurant's loyal diners for supporting the business through the decades. Rainy Daze Brewing, a popular but low-profile Silverdale beer maker, will slide into Sound Brewery's space on Bovela and ramp up production.Ĭampana's owner Chris Campana said the decision to close the family business was difficult, but he was weary of the restaurant industry, which he said has become increasingly complex and challenging.

Sound Brewery will move its tasting room from Bovela Lane into the Campana's building. POULSBO - One of Poulsbo's oldest restaurants will close this spring, making way for one brewery to expand and another to open in the city.Ĭampana's Italian Restaurant plans to serve its last dinner April 30, ending a 40-year run on Viking Avenue.
