a dart room with a fireplace and a reading library full of brewing books and magazines
announced it will close its doors permanently on May 4
“This decision has been a difficult one, and it comes after much reflection on the legacy we’ve built together. Our brewery and restaurant have been more than just places of business — they have been home to countless memories, friendships, and shared experiences,” said owner Brendan Moylan on Facebook
Moylan said there were many factors that led to closing
Craft beers are kind of an oversaturated market at this point
Generation Z is different in their drinking habits
Keeps a lot to make that engine work," he said
Moylan also announced they will hold a silent auction
Just ask for the binder behind the bar where there is a list of items to bid on ranging from anything you can imagine whether it be barstools
All proceeds will go to employees to help them in this transition time
Moylan’s Brewing Company opened at Rowland Plaza in Novato in 1995
Moylan and brewmaster Arne Johnson found success receiving a multitude of awards for their beers including their Kiltlifter Scotch Ale
“Thank you once again for being part of the Moylan’s family
but the spirit of craft beer and good food will remain with us always,” Moylan said
Moylan said the name will live on in Moylan’s Distilling Co
where they’ve produced award-winning whisky
brandy and other spirits since 2004 out of Petaluma
