An STL Brewery closing down

Can’t say this one surprises me too much. When I was in there I never saw it too busy and the beers never got to where I hoped they would. Sorry to see Standard go, but not all breweries are going to survive.

......and Alpha is still open.

John, when you and I stopped in at Standard there were few customers. And I was not impressed with the beers they offered. So this isn’t a surprise. But I am glad we went and am sorry to see them closing.

This kinda falls under the same thing as Standard to me. Went by here twice, never busy and in the competitive landscape here they didn’t really stand out. Will be interesting to see if they keep making beers in the area or elsewhere.

John, maybe our brewery visits are bringing some bad mojo to them. And maybe we could make that profitable. For a fee we won’t visit their brewery.
