USA, SC: Eighth State Brewing Co. to close for good at the end of September

Another Greenville brewery is shuttering, Post and Courier reported on September 20.

The Eighth State Brewing Co. announced on social media late afternoon Sept. 20 that it will close at the end of this month. The owners provided scant details for the decision.

The brewery, which opened six years ago inside the historic Claussen Bakery building at 400 Augusta Street alongside the railroad tracks near Greenville High School, built a reputation for innovation in both beer but also in art, music and food.

The closure comes as the brewery hosted the Altered States art and music festival in July and as chef Conner Hinderks opened the food concept Little Secret inside the brewery's kitchen space. The food, with its take on familiar and upscale dishes, has drawn rave reviews.

In a post, Hinderks said that "we will be here serving up tasty bites all the way to closing day, the end of September. After that we will be looking for new venues/restaurants/bars to partner with and continue to bring you our pop up delightfulness."

The closing comes as other notable Greenville breweries have shuttered recently, including Birds Fly South Ale Project in October 2023 and Brewery 85 in June 2023.
