Saw on my FB feed this morning their brewery is closing for good. That really sucks. Pompous Pelican was one of my favorite beers.

Hate to see it but none of their beers really impressed me.

Tough to sell expensive craft beer and make any money when half the state is unemployed and governor has his nuts on your tap room for a year.

Breweries have been hit the hardest with COVID restrictions.
A lot of mediocre breweries that were already struggling prior to restrictions.
Expect more of this.

I thought they shut down last year considering they havent made a social media post since March of last year.
Really hard to gain a following these days if you arent even putting yourself out there and relying on only 3 beers.

I don't enjoy seeing a brewery close. That is sad news, and I wish the best for the owner(s) and the family.

Well, to each their own...

People are worried about the Great Reset and Age of Aquarius and how it relates to society as a whole, but they don't realize it only applies to breweries. Something needed to happen to weed out the less than stellar places and Covid was the catalyst.

I was told they closed for good back in the early days of COVID.

Southern Craft did a good job of supporting the community. Gave product away for church fairs and fund raisers. Good people. Hate to see it.

They were well behind most breweries in the state. Just didn’t see a reason to buy their beer over anyone else’s

Wish them the best and I hope all the local companies thrive. But there are craft beer companies on every corner now and there weren’t many years ago. It’s not a good business unless you can have high sales and currently, the market is too crowded. Trends don’t always equate to a good sustainable business, unfortunately.

I cannot believe they lasted as long as they did:
bad beer
bad location
zero ambiance
insane covid restrictions
They made the worst beer across the board of any microbrewery I have ever tried.
