Idiom Brewing’s Owner is Stepping Down – Michael Clements Bids Farewell to Idiom Brewing

In an early morning social media post today, Michael Clements, owner and founder of Idiom Brewing announced his intentions of stepping down and leaving the business. He reiterated how Idiom Brewing is open and active, but is for sale. (See our article: Idiom Brewing Listed For Sale.)

The brewery is located in Frederick Maryland along the canal at 340 E Patrick St #104, Frederick, MD 21701. One of our personal favorites here at The Beer Thrillers, we’ve covered their Star Wars beers, their Mario themed beer, as well as some of their events (like their World MS Day beer) on the blog.

IDIOM REMAINS OPEN BUT IS FOR SALE!

Michael Clements post on Idiom Brewing’s Facebook account this morning:

IDIOM REMAINS OPEN BUT IS FOR SALE!
Here is a message from our founder:
Idiom Brewing Friends and Fans,
A few months ago I announced that I was listing our production brewery for sale in an effort to downsize, streamline and focus our efforts on our taproom and our overall customer experience. While that effort was the main goal at that time, I also did some soul-searching regarding my personal life, what I’ve accomplished as the owner of Idiom, with the help of the many wonderful staff who currently work at Idiom (and those who have come before), and where the path in this life leads.
After much thought and many long nights of deliberation, I have decided that it’s time for me to move on and to allow new ownership an opportunity to take the Idiom brand to the next level. As such, last week I listed Idiom for sale, including its two locations (the taproom and production brewery) as well as all rights to the brand.
This was by no means an easy decision. I poured (pardon the pun) my life into Idiom. I spent many sleepless nights running draft lines, writing recipes and responding to customer comments / concerns. I worked a full-time job while still brewing every day and pouring beer at night. I lived and breathed it. It was and still is my baby. However, just like all children, you must let them go at some point. Because they can be so much more without you. Now is that time.
While I will miss Idiom and will always look back on it fondly, I am hopeful that new ownership, whoever they may be, will take up the Idiom name and continue its legacy. I hope they continue to provide a welcoming place where people from all walks of life can gather to enjoy a beer and each other. I hope they continue to be a hub in the Frederick brewery scene, and they continue to innovate and provide unique experiences and unique flavors for you – my family and friends.
This isn’t goodbye. This is a cheers and well-wishes to each of you!
May you all have happy and full lives and may we cross paths again and share in good food and good drink!
With much love and admiration,
Michael Clements
We will keep everyone updated and posted as we get more information! We personally wish Michael the best and good luck with all future endeavors. As I said above, Idiom Brewing holds many fond memories here at The Beer Thrillers, and we wish him, and all involved the best and good luck.

We are working on a massive project here at The Beer Thrillers. We are creating a map of all of the breweries across the United States. State by state we are adding maps of all of the different states with every brewery in each state. (We will eventually get to the US Territories, as well as the Canadian Provinces, and possibly more countries; as well as doing some fun maps like a map of all the breweries we’ve been to, and other fun maps.) You can find the brewery maps here:

We are also working on a project of creating printable and downloadable PDFs and resources to be able to check and keep track of all of the breweries you’ve been to. So stay tuned for that project once we are finished with the Brewery Maps of the US States.
