Located at 2207 Northwood Dr Unit 3A, Salisbury, MD 21801, Gateway Craft Brewing opened in 2020, and unfortunately is having to close down. 2025 is starting off rough this year, Four Seasons Brewing has announced that they are “currently” closed, and now Gateway Craft Brewing has permanently closed. Gateway Craft Brewing was one of a few breweries located in Salisbury MD, and opened during a rough time, with the pandemic, and all of the other events and happenings of 2020.

Gateway Craft Brewing’s announcement on social media.

Gateway Craft Brewing Announces Permanent Closing

At 9:41 AM this morning, Gateway Craft Brewing made the following announcement via Facebook:

2025….

….is starting off on a bad note. Unfortunately, we must close Gateway Craft Brewing permanently. For the past 4 years we had enjoyed sharing our beer and the company of our customers and friends. Tim’s recovery from the surgery is coming along fine, but he continues to have difficulty walking, making it painful to complete all the tasks needed to maintain the brewery. If we can’t make beer, we are unable to bear the costs of keeping it open.

It has been very painful coming to this decision.

Thank you for your help and support in giving us the opportunity to further the craft beer vibe here on the Eastern Shore. Please join us Saturday January 25 for potluck, our remaining beer, discounted merch, and sharing time with friends.

–Gateway Craft Brewing Facebook Post

2024 was a tough year for a lot of breweries, and 2025 doesn’t look to be much better. Tim’s medical and health issues also complicated and made things a lot harder as well for Gateway Craft Brewing.

Four Seasons Brewing, out of Latrobe (greater Pittsburgh area) Pennsylvania, is currently closed. They first made a post on their social media (Facebook Post) yesterday at 2:01 PM just stating “Due to unforeseen circumstances, the pub will be closed today. We’ll see you tomorrow! ” But now today, just about an hour ago they posted again, stating that they will be closed for an unforeseen while with no reopening date planned.

Four Seasons Brewing Company and Pub Closed Due to Forces Outside of Their Control

As of right now, we don’t have a lot of information, but it seems like the closure might be for a little while. Today at 11:13 AM they posted the following to their social media accounts:

As we’re sure most of you have heard, the brewery is closed until further notice. We do not have a reopen date, but will be sure to update once we do.

This decision was completely out of our control and we hope to have everything resolved quickly. Thanks to all of you for your continuous support over the years. We’ll see you soon

Is it a license issue?

It doesn’t seem to be a brewery’s license issue. When we looked it up on the PLCB site we found this:

Four Seasons Brewing Company and Pub’s Brewery License

So it would appear that they currently have their brewer’s license up and set until the end of 2025. (Typically brewery licenses are yearly and run calendar year, January 1st to December 31st.)

As we find out more we will keep everyone posted here on the blog.

Cellar Works Brewing Has Announced Their Upcoming Closure (photo courtesy of Cellar Works Brewing)

Cellar Works Brewing Announces Closure On 10.26

Unfortunately more bad news in the brewing industry and the brewing world, and specifically for Cellar Works Brewing. Cellar Works Brewing has announced that they will be closing – completely – on October 26th. They announced the closing of Cooper Station back in January of 2023 (January 24th, 2023). Yesterday on social media, Cellar Works Brewing announced the difficult decision. They announced that unfortunately, with heavy hearts, they had to make the extremely difficult decision to close, and they announced that the last day of service would be the 26th of October. (We just announced on Monday that Englewood Brewing will be ceasing their restaurant operations for the remainder of 2024; whilst still continuing to brew, and to host events and to use their coffee shop.)

Cellar Works Brewing is located at 110 S Pike Rd #205, Sarver, PA 16055. Cellar Works Brewing was open, with locations in Verona, Saxonburg, and Sarver; collectively for seven and a half years.

Announcement

Cellar Works Brewing posted yesterday (10.15.24) this announcement via social media:

In a year full of difficult announcements, this one is the hardest. With extremely heavy hearts, we’re announcing the closure of Cellar Works Brewing. Our final service will be Saturday October 26.

Reflecting on the past 7 and a half years, we have a lot to be proud of. We’ve made a lot of great beers – some even won very prestigious awards. Each iteration of our kitchen has knocked our socks off with incredible dishes. One thing we’re particularly proud of is our relationship with the community. Sarver and Saxonburg welcomed us and we did what we could to give back. We will treasure the many friendships we’ve made, especially those with our Cellar Society members past and present whose support kept us going during the very difficult pandemic years.

After the pandemic, we could never really regain the traction we had in 2019 and our attempts to expand were poorly timed to say the least. It’s impossible for anyone to understand how much we’ve sacrificed to make CWBCo exist. However, there comes a time when we have to stop sacrificing and start to focus on ourselves. Therein lies the silver lining. We now have an opportunity to step away from the stresses of operating a business to have more time to focus on our families.

Someone once told me that its obvious which people open a brewery because they think they’ll get rich and which ones open a brewery because they’re passionate about beer. My only hope is that our passion for beer was obvious.

Stay tuned for upcoming events, announcements, and discounts. We hope you all stop out over the next couple of weeks and buy us out of beer. Cellar Society, watch for a final party announcement.

Sincerely,

John, Laura, and Tim

Tuesday, October 15th, 2024 – 7:00 PM – Facebook Post

Böser Geist Brewing Announces Closure

Add another brewery to the list for 2024. This time its Böser Geist Brewing out of Easton, PA. Located at 1250 Simon Blvd k100, Easton, PA 18042. They just announced their difficult decision to close in the upcoming weeks via Facebook and social media just a bit ago today (August 16th, 2024).

This marks one of the many breweries in Pennsylvania that is closing this year, and over dozens across the country. (Just this week upcoming will be Mellow Mink Brewing’s last days of operation.)

Announcement

The following comes from Böser Geist Brewing’s Facebook account:

Happy Friday Everyone!

As much of you know we’ve been putting out some amazing stuff for you guys over the past couple months and rearranging some things in hopes of stepping it up! We’re really grateful to our new brewer Paul and everything he’s put out thus far to date. James has been working out front with staff and in the back with the kitchen to make your visit as memorable as possible and it’s something as a team we’ve always strived to do. That’s why this next part doesn’t come easy.

We’ve had some battles in recent months that are just too hard to ignore and/or overcome which puts us into the situation that we’ve had to make. But before we get into that we wanted to thank all of our loyal guests and fans. Over the years we’ve grown and you’ve grown with us. We’ve made some lifetime friends and built relationships as well as watched so many people come into our home celebrate their special moments! We’ve had weddings, graduations, reunions, bridal and baby showers. We’ve shared in that special day as a stop for a bachelor or bachelorette party. We’ve had birthdays young and old, wedding parties, engagements, and many first dates! We’ve had the privilege of supporting many organizations including Breast Cancer Awareness- Men Wear Pink campaign, local youth organizations, fun runs, and 5k’s.

The reasons above make the next part not so easy. We are coming up to our final weeks. It hasn’t been an easy decision to make, but it’s for the best and it sets up a path for the next steps!

That said we thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts! You’ve all made this trip pretty spectacular and we still have some things up our sleeve we’ll be releasing in the next couple days. So please stop in before the end of the month and give support to our team and James and Paul!

We love you all!

And although Boser Geist may be saying good bye – you haven’t seen the last of us by far…love James, Paul & the AMAZING staff

Controversy

There has been some controversy following the brewery. Nothing officially reported in the different presses, but reports of things involving other breweries, namely their beers and kegs and recipes. Outside of insider trade talk, there has been no official discussion or reports made. There was also an alleged incident involving Seven Sirens Brewing Company and a somewhat vague-ish Facebook / social media posting about them chasing customers from one brewery to another, nothing again substantiated or claimed against Böser Geist Brewing but heavily implied. Böser Geist Brewing did not respond when asked for comments on these issues.

Mellow Mink Brewing’s Closing Announcement

Mellow Mink

This. One. Hurts. Some places, some breweries, just become a part of you and part of your craft beer experience, and world, and enjoyment. As we see more and more breweries closing this year, and the upcoming years, some are going to hurt more than others. Each person is different, and each brewery’s closing will affect people differently; but this one really just hurts. Matt and Cole are such wonderful people, who have done a lot for the beer community, have made a tremendous brewery and bar experience, and have been such wonderful people to talk beer with, this absolutely hurts. Like The Alementary and their closing, Mellow Mink Brewery held a very special place in our hearts here at The Beer Thrillers. We just want to go above and beyond to say thank you to all Matt and Cole and have done for the community.

Mellow Mink Brewing is located at 4830 Carlisle Pike in Hampden Township (4830 Carlisle Pike, Mechanicsburg, PA 17050).

Mellow Mink Brewing is a craft brewery located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, known for its unique and innovative approach to brewing. Founded by Matt Miller and Cole Taylor, Mellow Mink specializes in producing a wide range of craft beers, with a particular focus on sours and barrel-aged brews. The brewery has gained a reputation for its meticulous brewing process and the use of high-quality ingredients, ensuring each beer offers a distinct and memorable flavor profile.

The brewery’s taproom provides a welcoming and stylish environment for patrons to enjoy their beverages. With a sleek and modern design, the taproom offers a comfortable space for beer enthusiasts to gather and savor Mellow Mink’s diverse selection. In addition to its regular lineup, the brewery frequently releases limited-edition and seasonal beers, keeping the menu fresh and exciting for visitors. The taproom also hosts various events, including beer tastings, food pairings, and community gatherings, enhancing the overall experience.

Josh and Ben hanging out with Matt and Cole at Mellow Mink Brewery (January 2020)

When our blog was still new and baby fresh, Matt invited Josh and I out to their brewery to have a behind the scenes tour and get an intimate look at their operation, their beers and their sours, and we had such a wonderful time hanging out with Matt and Cole and spending hour and hour after hour talking about beer to no end. (See: Brewery Visit – Mellow Mink Brewery) I can’t thank Matt and Cole enough for that experience, as we learned so much from it all, and more importantly – just had a wonderful night.

Mellow Mink Brewing is Closing

As more and more breweries are closing, theres a lot of dynamics at play, and a lot of reasons for why they are closing. There is certainly a ‘bubble bursting’ in the craft beer industry, no matter how much some will tell you otherwise. And there is so many reasons and things that go into what makes a brewery great, or what will keep it standing out, and will keep people going back. The loss of Mellow Mink will be a big blow to the Central PA and the Harrisburg area and Harrisburg adjacent beer area.

Here is their announcement posted to social media:

Mellow Mink Brewing’s Closing Announcement

Today, it is with a heavy heart that we announce the upcoming closure of Mellow Mink Brewing. We have cherished the opportunity to serve our fans and community for the past six years. We are deeply proud of the beers and cocktails that we crafted, and the all-inclusive environment that we fostered. We now plan to wind-down brewing and taproom operations and close permanently by the end of August 2024. We hope you will visit us again before we are gone – we will be releasing several small batch and full-scale blends that are currently in the tanks. Thank you all for your love and support over the years!

Mellow Mink Brewing – Facebook Post

The out pouring of support started immediately right after they made their announcement and posts. The love the community has for them clearly shown, sadly, not enough support was given while they were fully in operation.

But, please everyone, lets go and visit them throughout July, and August, until their last day. Lets show Matt and Cole all the support we can while the doors are open — and afterwards. Let them know how much they are loved by the community. How great their sours are, and how much their stouts, and IPAs, kicked butt as well.

I just want to reiterate how much love we have for Matt and Cole and all the staff at Mellow Mink Brewery, and wish the absolute best for all involved in the future and everything they do. Lets all raise a pint to Matt, Cole, the staff of Mellow Mink, and the brewery itself!

(Join us, Josh, Ben, and Amy, as we will be visiting Mellow Mink, Friday – July 5th, after 6PM.)

Just moments ago Cox Brewing Company (CBC) made the unfortunate announcement – that their brewery will be closing at the end of 2023. Just twenty minutes ago on Facebook they posted a “Brewery News” update, stating that December 31st, 2023 will be their last day.

This is the second veteran owned brewery to be closing in the Central Pennsylvania area (with Tattered Flag closing in Middletown, Dauphin County).

Cox Brewing Company has been brewing for over eight years in the Rheems / Elizabethtown area of Central Pennsylvania. A huge proponent of home brewers, always offering assistance, as well as running events and local home brew meet ups, as well as participating in the Lititz Brewfest with giving prizes to home brewers.

Their closure will be felt in the brewing community as well as the home brewing community. A staple at many Central PA brewfests – like the Reinaissance Faire Brewfest at Mount Hope, at the Autos and Ales Brewfest in Hershey, the brand new Hershey Brewfest, the Fort Hunter Brewfest, the Lititz Brewfest, the old Lancaster Brewfest, and many more.

The Announcement

At 9:33 PM on 10.11.23, Cox Brewing Company posted the following on Facebook:

After running this family business for 8.5 years, we’ve decided that December 31, 2023, will be the last day we are open. With the rising cost of goods and services coupled with a 2024 military deployment, it’s time to let go.

Our families are incredibly proud of what we’ve been able to build together for the members of this community – we know it is more than just a place to drink craft beer. Our garage is sacred ground, and this decision was not easy for us.

We have watched love grow here and friendships develop; we also lost friends who were like family, and miss them. It has always been our priority to make the garage comfortable for our Veterans and first responders.

We dedicate these last three months to our loyal customers. We are grateful (especially during the shutdowns) for your support, showing up, and choosing Cox Brewing Company.

So, some good news…

Wednesdays are back, we have a lot of beer to drink, and the parties and events will continue! So come over, get some pints, visit with the BEST brewery staff in this business, and help us finish strong! We will not go gentle into that good night. We’ll see you at the garage.

Cheers and with much gratitude,

Nick and Tim

Cox Brewing Company (CBC) – Facebook Post

Cox Brewing Company

Cox Brewing Company was one of our absolute favorite stops and breweries. I’ve gotten to meet so many great people there and at the many different hang outs and parties at both the Rheems location as well as their Elizabethtown location next to the Pizza shop.

I will miss sitting with Ron Bell and others and listening to great stories and getting home brew advice.

Amy also enjoyed the location as well, and we had a tremendous time recently when we had brought Scarlet along.

I wish nothing but the best for Nick and Tim and hope the deployment is safe, and wish them the best in their future endeavors. Hopefully only good and better things to come from them, the area, the brewers of the area, as well as so much more. We know this decision couldn’t have been easy and I’m sure it was a fraught and tough decision.

Last night, on September 30th, Stickman Brews announced via their social media pages that they were closing immediately and permanently.

Their Instagram post reads:

Well guys, all things must come to an end. As of just now we are officially closed for good. We’d like to thank all our incredible customers for supporting us these last 8 years, and all the folks who have been part of our team for taking this wild ride with us. Owning and Operating Stickman has been a true pleasure, it’s just time for a new adventure. We’ll miss you guys!

Stickman Brews – Instagram

Stickman Brews was located in Royersford, Pennsylvania.

Recent Scaling Back

Last night’s announcement comes two months after the brewery scaled back their business. Near the end of July – Stickman Brews went through a temporary shut down for roughly ten days. Prior to the shut down Stickman Brews featured a full kitchen and taproom. When re – opening they changed some things; the changes included removing their kitchen as well as reduced hours.

The brewery was eight years old at time of closure.

Beer Busters Podcast

Beer Busters Podcast was one of the first to express their sadness over the closure.

You can follow them on Facebook at: Beer Busters Podcast (Facebook). They, along with Bart Kaminski helped release the Double Deuce beer with Stickman Brews that was released in numerous breweries across the state. (I had gotten mine at Boneshire Brew Works.)

(See Also: Bands and Brews for Bart)

Last night at 6:40 PM Devil’s Eye Brewing Company announced on their social media pages that they will be closing their doors on September 30th, 2023.

They are located in Dillsburg right on Route 15. They are 7 minutes and 2.5 miles from Big Bottom Brewery, as well as the Greystone Public House. Centralized on the main road through – Route 15 – in an old barn like structure.

They were known for their live music, ‘happening scene’, good food, and a place of great merriment and meet up in the Dillsburg area. A large venue with plenty of seating, space for the live music, and a busy bar. They served their community well.

Announcement

The following announcement was made on their Facebook page at 6:43 PM last night (9.20.23):

Four years ago we set out on a journey, never expecting we’d have to end it so soon. However, like so many others we can no longer continue to operate at our location in todays economy and have simply exhausted ourselves in every way. Our last day open will be September 30th, 2023…. We would love to see as many of you as we can by then!

With that being said, we’d like to thank all of our Devil’s Eye family (aka)staff for riding out every storm with us… There truly are no words that will ever fully express how much each of you will FOREVER mean to us, or how grateful we have been for your loyalty, and continued support ( You’ve all made the book we will write one day ) The road has been anything but easy, yet you stood with us and gave us a million percent day, after day. We have never enjoyed working beside anyone as much as we have each of you.

We’d also like to thank all of the amazing people we have had the pleasure of meeting, engaging with and getting to know. The customer support so many have shown over the years is truly humbling, and we can not say THANK YOU loud enough… and trust me… WE ARE LOUD!

At the end of the day, we started this journey with many goals in mind but, the change in this worlds compass altered those goals. Our # 1 goal however, still remains in tact and that is… We have NO regrets. Not one. We have learned from the good & the bad… During a time when the world was afraid, our futures uncertain… a dark cloud reigning over us all, it was those of us who engaged that brightened the path ahead. From the customers, to the community and it’s local business owners that we have tried to support as often as we could, from the incredible musicians we have met that have connected rooms full of people by speaking how the world was feeling with their talent and emotion, to those that brought them to us because they wanted to play, you’ve brightened our journey. There truly is no way to thank every one we have encountered enough. No matter what the encounter was, it taught us something incredible. And finally, we thank our families. Many of you have met some or all of our own families therefore, you will understand how important it is for us to say whole heartedly, without a single one of you…. We could NEVER have made it this far, nor would we have tried. Your support has been the most critical part of our accomplishments and we love you all, thank you for tolerating our crazy everything. You are the very best humans we know. For you we are blessed.

While we could go on and on about the incredible things we will take away from this journey… We will end it with this… When one door closes…. You kick open the next one … See y’all soon

Devil’s Eye Brewing Company (Facebook Post)

By 6AM this morning (9.21.23), their post has already received over 450 reactions and 189 comments and nearly a hundred shares.

Closings, Condensing, Squeezing, Bubbles Bursting

Is the craft beer bubble bursting? Is the brewery industry condensing? Are more breweries closing? Yes, maybe, yes, no, who knows?

It certainly seems like we’re in a restructuring phase for craft beer as a whole. Breweries are closing more frequently right now, its not just a perceived thing, its a full thing. There is also a lot more buy – outs, mergers, and restructuring by breweries and with other breweries – including some of the big companies like AB InBev, etc.

Times are definitely changing. Economic situations are different than they were when the craft beer boom really hit, and then when the craft beer scene blew up years and years ago as well. Theres an ebb and flow to things, so it will be interesting how the next few years factor into things.

A lot of craft breweries are also at that ‘hump’ stage. The years four through seven are the make or break years for most businesses; and craft breweries are no exception. Most of the breweries we see closing in our area are in this window (having been opened in 2016 through 2018 or 2019). The COVID-19 / coronavirus didn’t help things for many of these businesses either, either speeding up their demise, or forcing them to change too drastically, or even hindering their initial openings.

We are seeing some breweries expanding – but they are fewer and fewer. Pennsylvania seems to have some new openings, some new expansions, but on the whole – its more negative (despite some spin doctors out there) with more breweries closing. Even bigger breweries are brewing less and selling less as well. Staple beers that have been industry favorites are under – performing on the markets this year and sitting on shelves longer, and even being returned from distributors.

We will most likely be doing a more comprehensive look at this near the end of the year. Stay tuned for that.

Dillsburg

Amy and I got to visit Devil’s Eye Brewing once; last year in February 2022. We did a trip through the Dillsburg area hitting Big Bottom Brewing and Devil’s Eye Brewing on our way through. We would like to wish the owners, staff, and loyal clientele all the best in the future, and hopeful to see what future endeavors they come up with.

Cinderlands Foederhouse Temporary Closure

A little over an hour ago Cinderlands Beer Co went on their social media pages announcing the temporary closure of their Foederhouse location. The closure is just temporary as they re-set the building, turning it into a “new brewpub experience”.

The temporary closure is looking to take all of July, and its looking like it won’t be until August until the new brewpub will be open.

The Announcement

This is their announcement posted to their Facebook page:

HEADS UP: FOEDERHOUSE TEMPORARY CLOSURE

Heyyyyyy buddies. We have a piece of bittersweet news to share with you. This weekend will be the last weekend for the @cinderlandsfoederhouse as a dining and drinking experience at our original Lawrenceville location. We’ve been dialing back our hours and menu over the last month as we prepare to go into chrysalis mode and emerge in August as a brewery love letter to the neighborhood.

What to expect: a neighborhood brewpub experience, new stuff to dive into with your buds while you have a beer, a totally re-worked mezzanine and back room, a new menu and kitchen focus, and a re-imagined bar program dialed into the most popular Cinderlands beers complemented by some killer new drink options.

What’s not changing: the Cinderlands Foederhouse will continue to exist as an award-winning production brewery. Our gold medal naturally fermented foederbier will still crank out of our tiny basement brewery, and it will soon be available on draft and in package across all of our locations.

What to do now: come drink beer and eat smashburgers with us this weekend! We’re closing out the Human Robot House Guest residency with a bang. Czech 10 and Hallertau Pils are on their last drops and we are replacing them with Polotmavy Czech Garnet Lager and Rangi New Zealand Pilsner when they kick. Come have a last glass with us in the Foederhouse!

After this weekend, stay tuned for updates and announcements as we work towards revealing our newest concept to you all.

FINALLY, @cinderlandswarehouse and @cinderlandstaproomwex are NOT affected and will continue operating normally.

‘Till August, Lawrenceville friends

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:

• MAPS OF BREWERIES

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.

Announcement

Scrolling through my Facebook newsfeed just a few minutes ago, (which is mostly breweries and beer related pages), I passed over Fury Brewing Company’s post. Which you can read here: “Fury Brewing Company – Facebook”.

This was posted at 9:40AM (and I saw this at 10:02 and writing this very post up right now at 10:05AM).

Their post reads:

All of us here at Fury Brewing have loved serving you all for the past four and a half years. With those years come many memories we will always cherish!

We are very sad to announce that we are officially closed.

For some people who didn’t see our original post about our closing – Unfortunately, Covid has taken a toll on many business’ including ours, but we are thankful for the years spent with our customers.

We love each and everyone of you and are going to miss the conversations with you!

Thank you for continuing to come in during our last month!

The Closure

Sadly, this isn’t the first closure in the area, and unfortunately its not the only one listed as a result of COVID. Certainly COVID-19 has not been kind to the brewing industry, and quite a few breweries, businesses, restaurants, and various other companies have also shuttered doors over the past year or so.

Fury Brewing Company was located on the outskirts of Pittsburgh in Irwin. Spigot Brewing also located in the Pittsburgh area has also recently closed, citing COVID as one of the reasons. You can still check out Fury Brewing’s website here: Fury Brewing Company Homepage.

It is with a heavy heart making this announcement. Fury Brewing had a devoted following and was very involved with their community, so it is sad to see them go. We wish the best for all involved in their futures and hope some good may come of this with their workers and the property.

Thank you all for reading. Hopefully things will turn around, as COVID starts to get more under control, and life gets back to normal more and more. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy and happy. Today I’m looking to get to do another road trip of breweries and will be heading my night at Boneshire Brew Work’s 5th Anniversary Celebration. Hopefully I will see you there.

Prost!
