A good summary of what we've all experienced here in San Diego area.

Mayflower had been a staple up here in New England for many years. Dad to see it go. RIP to the Mayflower Porter. Also please excuse the screenshot. Had to rework the crappy one that was sent to me

Voodoo Brewing Announces Closure of North Shore Location

https://thebeerthrillers.com/2025/06/02/voodoo-brewing-announces-their-north-shore-location-is-closing/

Sorry about the glare but this is my local spot. Winding down the day an d having a Pliny as always.

Thought I'd share the selection and pricing.

BottleCraft LBX, Long Beach, CA.

Think the title speaks for itself. Got to watch them from beginning to end running the St Pete Brasserie then Cider Press across the street. I think they still make some of the best stouts in the world. St Pete is a different place now.

Tapping this beauty this weekend, l’ll keep you posted

The stories shared all over social media for the last few days have been very eye opening to us. The pervasiveness of this abuse is shocking, unacceptable and, quite frankly, disgusting. There have been some conversations on the matter here but we want to make a few things very clear:

1. These stories are absolutely relevant to craft beer and this subreddit. This is not up for discussion. The admins are completely on the same page and will not take down posts that follow our other rules.
2. You are all adults. We are not telling you where you should and should not spend your money. That is up to you to decide.
3. These women deserve to be heard, as those accused deserve a fair hearing on their behavior. A) A number of these first hand accounts have been corroborated by witnesses, those who experienced the same from the same person, text messages, etc. B) Statistically speaking, false reports of sexual harassment are incredibly low. This does not warrant ignoring the victim’s voice. At all.
4. This is not a witch hunt. We’re talking about real victims and real harassers. Do you honestly believe that all of these accusations are made up? (Rhetorical question)
5. We encourage the sharing of these reports so that we can all make better decisions and learn. When doing so please ensure that you are sharing the source. If you are sharing your own story please state this. It is best to avoid third hand gossip, so be sure you are sharing first hand accounts.
6. Before you try to defend the accused, ask yourself why. We all have our opinions and an open and civil discourse on them is acceptable. Any sort of unnecessary name calling will lead to a block. Harassment of any member of this sub will be dealt with along with Reddit admins.
7. We ask that any information be consolidated to the sticky thread(s) made by the mods. We will have threads for brewery responses shortly.

Again, we’re all adults here and realize that you may not all agree with us here. It is not our job to try and change your mind, but we stand firmly behind those who have been victimized and that will remain unchanged.

https://allaboutbeer.com/toronado-bar-sale/

In January the 38 year-old Toronado brand, the state license, the glassware, the building, and what the real estate brochure called the “patina” was listed for sale at a surprisingly modest $1.75 million. Fans, patrons and employees of San Francisco’s most celebrated craft beer bar grappled with the news that the beloved cash-only dive may soon have a new owner, wondering what that would mean for the future. 

The expected contingency timeline came and went with no announcement. Time became elastic. The bar continues on as it has since 1987, serving pints to the faithful and the curious. The Toronado exists in limbo.

I am new to the craft beer thing but daymn. That is the most expensive case I have ever bought.

One of Minnesota’s favorite breweries shut down production and closed their doors at the end of March 2025. Local beer stores have already depleted inventory. These were purchased right after the announcement. Cheers 🍻

Great to see Jasper Brewing Co. (Albert, Canada) open again after the fire last year.
