It is with much sadness that I announce the permanent closure of the Cape Ann Brewing Company.
During the summer of 2002, a casual conversation spawned the, perhaps ill-thought, idea of what would become the Cape Ann Brewing Company. Since that day, we strove to create a brand and a place that would represent "the courage and spirit of the North Atlantic Fishing Fleet." We are proud of what we've created over the past 18 years. During this time we've weathered many storms, at times enjoyed smooth seas, and have always been thankful for the stong headwinds that have guided our voyage. Unfortunately, the current climate has proven to be our last sail. (Is that enough sailing cliches?)
For myself, I'll always be grateful for the friendships I've made and I thank you all for allowing me to be part of your community. To our customers, I can't thank you enough for your support and patronage. To my staff over the years, I have been extraordinarily lucky to have the best team. Thank you for all your hard work. I always strove to create an environment where everyone felt like family and I hope we were able to achieve that for our staff and guests alike.
May all your future voyages be full of good food, good beer, and good company!
