USA, WI: MobCraft Beer to wind down operations by end of November

The owner of a popular brewery in Wisconsin has announced that he’ll be winding down operations by the end of November before being acquired by another brewery, WFRV reported on November 4.

According to a social media post, MobCraft Beer in Milwaukee and Woodstock, Illinois, is in negotiations to be acquired by another brewery and will most likely be winding down operations as MobCraft at the end of November.

“It’s with mixed emotions that I am making this post,” said MobCraft officials. “Trying to cram heartbreak, financial struggles, excitement, and optimism all into the same statement, but here we are!”

MobCraft’s last official day of serving will be November 30, 2024. Officials say that the MobCraft location in Woodstock, Illinois, may continue to operate as MobCraft and be run by current leadership or transition as well.

“As I reflect on the past 12 years of this business, it’s been a ride that I feel so fortunate to have shared with a lot of really cool people and fans,” read the social media post. “We’ve built an amazing community over the years, and that’s apparent through all of the love we consistently heard from you.”

MobCraft Beer laid out a detailed plan for some of the final events they’re hosting throughout November.
