USA, VA: BadWolf Brewing sold to new owner
Jeremy and Sarah Meyers sold BadWolf Brewing after founding the company more than six years ago, PotomacLocal.com reported on April 13.
The Manassas couple posted this announcement to the brewery’s blog.
“After almost six years in business, Sarah and Jeremy Meyers have made the decision to step down as owners and take on other roles in their lives. Doug Webb, a career firefighter for over 30 years has purchased the business. He wants to assure current customers that we will continue to operate and serve customers as we have in the past.
We are truly thankful for your business and friendship over the years. We hope that you will continue to support BadWolf Brewing Company and the new owner and staff. Whether you are stopping by for a pint or grabbing a growler to go, you can be assured to see the same smiling faces, receive the same great customer service and quality beers. On occasion, you may see Jeremy stopping by to brew a few guest batches.
Our current regular events will continue such as Books on Tap, Wicks & Sips and the Stein Club will remain in place.”
The Manassas brewery was one of the first in the region after Virginia legislators changed laws and allowed breweries and distilleries in commercial areas. They were relegated to industrial zones prior to the change.
BadWolf was also the first brewery in the region to expand to a second location, on Kao Circle, dubbed “Big BadWolf” in Manassas. Last year, the couple sold Big BadWolf. Today, it’s under new ownership and operates as Tucked Away Brewing.
In the same move, the company also pulled out of its portion of Public House, a restaurant on Battle Street in Downtown Manassas.
BadWolf kept its original location at 9776 Center Street in Manassas.
This change comes as Heritage Brewing announced it would not open a planned second location, a major production facility, and restaurant, at the Landing at Cannon Branch in Manassas.
