E-Malt.com News article: USA, IL: Generations Brewing Company to shut down at the end of January

A brewery that has served the Freeport area for over a decade announced that it will be shutting down at the end of January or "earlier if the beer sells out", Q985 reported on December 16.

Generations Brewing Company announced on Facebook the impending closure. The post reflected more on the building than just the business, where owners called the place a spot for celebrations, routines, and those casual "grab one" moments.

The team at Generations also thanked their customers for turning their dream brewery into a home. Staff were also praised for their passion, pride, and commitment to the brewery from day one.

Generations is hoping customers turn out in the final few weeks to raise a few glasses in the same place where friendships were formed and memories were made.
