Aurochs Brewing Company Announce Their Upcoming Closure

Aurochs Brewing Company Will Cease Operations by End of 2024

Aurochs Brewing Company located at 8321 Ohio River Blvd, Emsworth, PA 15202 will be ceasing operations by the end of 2024. Its the start of the new month, but sadly also the beginning of the end for Aurochs Brewing Company. Over 10 years in business (established in 2012) and unfortunately they have had to make the tough and difficult decision to close by the end of the year. Known as one of the only gluten-free producing breweries not just in Pennsylvania, but in the greater east coast region; Aurochs Brewing made a name for themsleves over the 12 years of their operations.

Aurochs Brewing Company

Aurochs Brewing Company, located just outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, specializes in crafting naturally gluten-free beers. Founded by Ryan and Doug, both of whom have personal experiences with gluten intolerance—Ryan diagnosed in his twenties and Doug with Celiac disease since childhood—the brewery was born from a desire to create flavorful craft beers that are safe for those with gluten sensitivities. Since its inception, Aurochs has produced over 40 different styles of gluten-free beer, focusing on high-quality ingredients such as millet, quinoa, and buckwheat sourced from dedicated gluten-free suppliers.

The brewery has gained recognition for its commitment to quality and taste, winning a Gold Medal at the 2020 Great American Beer Festival for its Aurochs Hazy IPA. Their core lineup includes six year-round offerings: Aurochs Blonde Ale, Session IPA, Amber Ale, Porter, Light Lager, and Hazy IPA. Each beer is brewed in a dedicated gluten-free facility, ensuring that all products are free from wheat, barley, and rye. This meticulous process not only guarantees safety for consumers but also emphasizes the brewery’s mission to provide great-tasting beer without compromise.

In addition to their brewing operations, Aurochs has embraced modern distribution methods by offering direct shipping within Pennsylvania and expanding to neighboring states. The brewery’s taproom invites visitors to enjoy a variety of beers on draft alongside gluten-free snacks. With a focus on community and sustainability, Aurochs Brewing Company continues to grow its customer base while maintaining its commitment to producing exceptional gluten-free craft beer for all occasions.

Aurochs Brewing Closing by End of 2024

The Announcement

Aurochs Brewing Company posted the following on social media just two hours ago:

The End of our Story

Thank you for your support of Aurochs Brewing Company through its existence. Over 10 years ago, we set out with the goal of “changing the way the world experiences gluten-free beer”. In that time we have seen that happen many times over and are extremely grateful to have been one part of that larger evolution.

Today, it is with a heavy heart that we announce that Aurochs Brewing Company will be ceasing operations by the end of the year 2024.

We are proud to have brewed great-tasting, award-winning, naturally gluten-free beers that have resonated with many of you. Through your patronage we have been able to grow our footprint and meet the needs of gluten-free beer drinkers across our region.

With the help of our amazing staff and supporters we have given this endeavor everything we have. After years of hard work, countless late or sleepless nights, navigating the challenges of a global pandemic, and the rigors of building and scaling a dedicated gluten-free brewery our founder team has run out of gas. Although the brewery continues to grow in our home market, we do not have the personal resources to go to the next level or to continue operations beyond this year.

We are eternally grateful to our customers, partners, investors, and employees (past and present) who have made this journey so special. From the moment we opened our doors 10 years ago, you have shown up consistently, supporting Aurochs and pushing our dream forward.

We plan to open our tasting room while there is still beer available. We will communicate about hours of operations and opportunities to purchase the last batches of Aurochs.

Additionally, beer will be available for shipping throughout Pennsylvania only while supplies last. Any orders placed this weekend will be shipped out on Tuesday (11/5) with tracking information.

Thank you for taking this journey with us, thank you for your passion and support.

Doug & Ryan

Liquid Noise Brewing Company Announces The Show is Ending

Sadly… Sometimes the Show Must End

In rather shocking news, about a half hour ago Liquid Noise Brewing Company, out of Marysville Pennsylvania, has announced that they will be closing their doors and will be having one final show. No closing date has been announced yet, but they just posted on Facebook and Instagram encouraging their fans and guests and customers to use their trivia winnings and gift cards.

They were just about to make it to their third year anniversary.

Liquid Noise’s Message

The brewery’s post on their social media just about a half hour ago reads:

From a worldwide pandemic to loss of loved ones, Liquid Noise pushed through, but it saddens us to announce that just shy of our 3-year birthday our tour has come to an end. We will be closing our doors sometime in December. We will continue to operate our currents days and hours until our closing date is announced. We value all the new friends that we have made during our journey and appreciate all the loyal friends that have shown their support for us.

We encourage you to please use any gift cards or trivia winnings at this time until we announce our final show date.

If you have any special photos or memories of your times at Liquid Noise please share them on this post! Remember….keep an eye out for our last day and specials that are on the way!!

On behalf of the entire Liquid Noise Family we THANK YOU!! It has been one heck of back stage tour! CHEERS AND KEEP ON ROCKING & CRAFTING LIKE A ROCKSTAR!!

Liquid Noise Brewing Company

Liquid Noise Brewing Company was the first brewery in Marysville Pennsylvania, and for the longest time was the only brewery running in Perry County, Pennsylvania.

As per Untappd:

They are a micro brewery out of Marysville, Pennsylvania with 176 unique beers and 8,128 ratings. They have a global average rating of 3.78 (as of 12.5.22). They have no listed bio or description on Untappd.

For more information on Liquid Noise Brewing Company:

They were a regular stop and visit for Josh, as well as myself, and later Amy as well. Leela was also a big fan of sitting out front (she especially enjoyed getting to “steal” french fries from me). Its really a shame to see the brewery announce that they will be closing. This comes off the recent news of both Rocket Frog Brewing Company (in Virginia) announcing their closure, as well as myself being informed that Burd’s Nest Brewing Company (in Carlisle, Pennsylvania) will also be shuttering their doors.

End of the Year

Hopefully this trend of breweries closing at the end of the year won’t continue, and hopefully its not a sign of the “craft beer” and “craft brewery” bubble and marketplace collapsing and bursting like everyone talks about happening. Fingers crossed at any rate.

Thanks For Reading

Sad news to end the day on. We (Amy and myself… and Leela too) loved going to Liquid Noise. So did Josh I know.

Hopefully this will be the last brewery closure post I’ll have to make (for a long, long, long time). And we wish the best and good luck to all involved with Liquid Noise Brewing Company moving forward.

Goodnight everyone.

Cheers All.
