MILWAUKEE, Wis. (WFRV) – A brewery in Wisconsin announced that it will permanently close on Sunday, June 29, after almost eight years of service, while expressing gratitude to its loyal customers.
1840 Brewing Company announced the decision on its Facebook page on June 20, citing the challenges of running a small brewery in the Milwaukee market, especially while battling pancreatic cancer.
“We are insanely proud of the liquid we produced with the incredible team of people we were lucky enough to make it with,” the post said. “But it is time for every waking minute to be spent together at home, continuing our fight against cancer and making more family memories.”
The post, written by owners Kyle and Stephanie Vetter, expressed great thanks to all of the community members and employees who made the memories and taproom so special.
