Craft breweries shutting down due to U.S. carbon dioxide shortage

this is troubling
Craft breweries shutting down due to U.S. carbon dioxide shortage
Craft breweries across America have been on the front lines of businesses facing higher material costs because of inflation.
Now, many are confronting a shortage of a key ingredient: carbon dioxide, the gas that gives beer its crisp, effervescent taste.
And one brewer has already said it plans to shut down a key manufacturing plant and lay off workers as a result.
Night Shift Brewing, in Everett, Massachusetts, just outside Boston, cited the CO2 shortage as the reason it is suspending operations at its longtime facility and outsourcing to nearby locations instead.
"Come October 1, we won’t likely have jobs for many of this team," the company said in a statement on Instagram.
It's a slow-moving crisis that became worse this summer as reports emerged that the carbon dioxide sourced at Jackson Dome in Mississippi, one of the nation's largest gas production hubs, had been contaminated.

Time to go back to natural carbonation.

Is this what finally makes the craft beer bubble burst? They are basically like Starbucks nowadays, they're everywhere

The majority of these bearded hipsters who run these breweries voted for Biden. Ironic how this happens.

As long as the Natural Light plant doesn't shut down, I'll be just fine.

Luckily, we all only drink the High Life.

I've seen this at the gas station by my shop recently. Their fountain drink machine has been down for over a month and I asked the girl that's always in there what's the deal with it and she said the local Coca-Cola distributor can't get CO2 tanks so the fountain will work.
