In a surprising turn of events, Brockton’s first brewpub (a combination brewery and restaurant), Brockton Beer Company, announced that they would not be closing their doors after all. This news comes as a relief to the local community who had been preparing to bid farewell to the beloved brewpub.
Earlier this month, Brockton Beer Company had shared a heartfelt message with their patrons, explaining that due to their current revenue not covering their current and ongoing expenses, they would be closing their taproom on Saturday, September 24, 2024. The announcement was met with concern from the community, with many expressing their sadness with the loss of such a valued establishment in downtown Brockton.
However, in an unexpected twist, the brewpub revealed on the very day they were set to close that they would, in fact, remain open. The reason for this dramatic reversal? A last-minute “boost in capital” has breathed new life into the business. Brockton Beer Company explained, “Thanks to a last-minute boost in capital, we’re pushing forward with new plans to serve you better, with change in operations, more consistency and the same high-quality craft beer you love.”
