Bright Light Brewing Company announces closure

By Staff Report, posted 1 year ago

Although they remained confident in their business in March of 2024, Bright Light Brewing Company has now taken to social media to announce they will cease operations in late October.

“For almost eight years the taproom on Russell St. has been a fun place to have a few cold ones and mingle amongst friends. We've had some great musicians play, some cool events and made a lot of memories for all involved! Our staffing has always been great and we appreciate everyone who worked for BLBC. We would like to say a BIG Thank You for the good times to patrons and staff!” The team shared on their Facebook page. 

The business shared that until the final day, all draft, wine, cans will be priced at $5 and cases are buy 1 get 1 (while supplies last). All remaining T-shirts will be $10 and glasses can be purchased for $2.

Anyone that may be interested in assuming the lease and starting their own business at 444 W. Russell St. should contact Grant Murray Real-Estate for information.

For the contents/equipment of the taproom (tables, chairs,coolers, etc) or if interested in assuming operations in place under a different name, call or email contact info to brightlightbrewingco@gmail.com.
