Howdy friends and family of Tin Roof!
We've got a little news to pass along to all of our long-time supporters (and the new ones too!):
After 14 years and a lot of hand-wringing, William, Chris, and Cammy have decided to say farewell. While our hopes are high that the Tin Roof brand will live on in the capable hands of new owners, the current model will conclude on October 11, 2024.
-per today's daily report
Anyone know what is going on?

I always enjoyed their Juke Joint IPA.

Istrouma Brewing is still closed for renovations
I bet they never reopen
The brewing industry bubble has passed
You have way too many these days and not all of them can survive
the consolidation and closures of ones in New Orleans forecasted this

Have you seen all of the recent brewery closures in Austin? There’s been several.

a lot are closing around the Nashville and surrounding areas as well
just like everything else, costs are making it difficult to sustain them
unless you are established and have brand loyalty in stores similar to Abita it's not an easy place to be right now

Costs are making it difficult but I’ve also read several articles about people consuming less alcohol in general these days.
Just a weird thought here but my theory is the over saturation of IPA’s in particular has led to some of the demise of brewery closings.
I felt once all of these breweries started making these ridiculous citrus explosions of IPA’s the brewery scene sort of jumped the shark.
Think about a brewery around 2009-2013 compared to now.
Back then you had sours, stouts and way more traditional west coast IPA’s.
I feel nowadays the overwhelming focus is all haze and NE style citrus IPAs which I think have lost their novelty. Unfortunately, porters, stouts, sours and other styles have been shoved to the back burner.
Just my opinion.

I 100% agree.
Making a nice, refreshing crisp Pilsner with no funk is a lost art.

Understood, but I don't think over saturation is a problem in Baton Rouge.

Maybe you could argue that it isn’t a lost art, but it certainly has diminished in popularity over the past decade or so.

Not true at all, just locally Cypress Coast and Agile put out solid lagers and Pilsners all the time. In NOLA, Parleaux is killing it with their pilsners and lagers. Even nationally IPA heavy breweries like Treehouse are putting out more and more Crisp beers.

It may be for the demand in that market. Baton Rouge ain't Albuquerque or Denver with hoards of craft beer fans buying the stuff off the shelves. Instead, you can fill Tiger Stadium with Garth Books fans all screaming Calling Baton Rouge at the top of their lungs while pounding Bud Light.
Plus, one thing I've noticed about other large craft beer scenes, some of that breweries actually don't try to put out beer on the shelves and concentrate a huge part of their effort on cooking and serving pretty darn good food. Bayou Teche in Arnaudville appears to have killed it with pizzas and atmosphere. You can't find their beers on the store shelves anymore.

Breweries are market dependent now. If you live in an area with a large boomer population, breweries are still opening and performing well, because old people eat out more and have disposable income to spend. Also, as beer has dropped in popularity for younger people (who have less time/money, care more about instagram than drinking), it has grown for older people.
My boomer dad is a borderline hazebro now, and growing up he only drank Coors Light. Walk into a brewery in 2024 and it's mostly families letting their kids run around and boomers.

One thing I never understood about Tin Roof was why they didn't have more family nights. They would do once a month with food truck (until they bought their own) and inflatables, balloon animals, face paint, and it was always a good turn out. If they did that weekly instead of monthly it certainly would have brought in more money - save the "breweries aren't for kids!" comments.
Didn't seem like they ever had much traffic beyond those days.

They were doing drag shows and stuff like that all the time

It will be October, but they will be back open. Whether their beer has improved remains to be seen, but they are much more of a restaurant that happens to brew some beer than they are a brewery that also serves food.

I think istrouma will be back but man they have to figure out how to handle crowds, for even a midsize crowd you'd be waiting 30+ min in line to get a beer.

I remember when they were working on the LSU licensed beer the Bengal lager or whatever it is. I went in to do the tasting and voting on it. Thought they were all terrible and never really found anything I liked from them other than maybe Voodoo
