Where do I even begin? Year after year, I’ve logged onto this page to share daily specials, new brews, and the weekly Brewmaster cat pic. Today, I log on to share something profoundly different… something that is incredibly hard to put into words through the tears, but I will try. (this post will not be short, you have been warned).
As many of you know, our beloved owner and founder Scotty has been preparing for a well-deserved retirement. He has brewed the best beers in the Cape year atfer year, built a brand everyone can recognize from a mile away, and a community that is unparalleled.
We worked tirelessly, believing we found the perfect successor right under our noses: one of our very own brewmasters, who was ready to step up and carry the Scotty's brand forward in Cape Coral for years to come.
& While everything seemed picture-perfect, we have simply run out of time and options. Despite fighting the good fight and our best efforts, lease negotiations have reached a complete standstill.
It is with profound sadness, and the heaviest of hearts, that we must announce we are closing our doors indefinitely at the end of the day this Friday, November 28th.
Scotty's Bierwerks has been an enormous part of the Cape Coral and Southwest Florida brewing community for almost nine years. It's so much more than just a brewery; it is a home away from home. If you know, you know.
It has been the place where you celebrated life milestones, where countless lifelong friendships and relationships started over a pint, and where you spent countless nights unwinding and catching up. We’ve watched your food trucks, music careers, businesses and families start, grow, and flourish. We’ve watched our community flourish. We are truly all family now.
It has been an incredible honor to be a part of the Scotty’s Bierwerks crew for all these years. We are devastated to close these doors knowing we will not share these daily moments with you any longer, but the memories… they are all we have left, and they will live on.
With every ounce of love we can offer, we ask you to stop by the Taproom for a final farewell:
🍺 Today (Wednesday, 11/26) 1pm-last call
🦃 Closed for Thanksgiving
🍺 Friday (11/28) 1pm-last call
We will be open selling the beer you all know and love starting at 1:00 PM until last call.
Please come say goodbye to Will, Mary, Ashlee, and, of course, Scotty. Don't wait, there will not be another chance. Come get a piece of Scotty's history, stock up on merchandise, and grab a few beers, cans and kegs to enjoy at home this Thanksgiving weekend.
Think of us as you enjoy these final pints, tag us in your posts so we can share your memories, and spend our last couple of days with us as we close this incredible chapter known as Scotty's Bierwerks.
We love you, & we thank you for being here for all these years. You have all truly made Scotty’s everything it is today.
-Mary, Will, Scott, Ashlee, Max, Juan, & Charlotte. 🍻
