USA, IN: Carson's Brewery to close down on December 31
Carson's Brewery on Evansville's North Side will close Dec. 31 after an eight-year run, the Courier & Press reported.
The COVID pandemic presented too many obstacles for the small business to overcome, owner Jason Carson said.
The business has four full-time employees. All have found new jobs that they'll start in 2022, Carson said.
Carson's Brewery received a federal Paycheck Protection Program loan for just over $100,000. That helped sustain the business for awhile, but Carson said COVID pressures were too great.
He said a major part of his business involved distribution, and that was stymied by COVID. Traffic also slowed at the brewery's 2404 Lynch Road address, which had a tap room, live entertainment and special events.,"
"People don’t come out like they used to," Carson said.
The Carson's Brewery property has been sold to Chem Group, whose facility is next door at 2406 Lynch Road. The transfer takes effect Jan. 1.
