"The nine-year-old brewery known for its Sakura-Pome Gose and Burnside Stout has closed suddenly. I saw a Reddit post saying the brewery, which closed for a “snow day” yesterday, had laid off all employees without notice; a screenshot of a message to employees read, “Effective Tuesday, February 5th, Burnside Brewing is no longer operational,” and added, “It is not certain that we will be able to make payroll this Friday... we will be in touch with paycheck information as soon as we are able.” Today a user uploaded a photo of a notice of lockout and termination of tenant’s right to possession posted on the brewery’s door, and the notice says Alchemy Brewing Company LLC, the business license name behind Burnside, has been kicked out of the property and that the landlord changed the locks because “no payments have been made to the landlord in months.” Eater confirmed the notice remains posted and a former employee confirmed the layoffs via email; the Barnett Firm, representing the landlord, declined to comment, and calls and messages to Burnside Brewing have gone unanswered. A correction notes the landlord’s LLC is 701 East Burnside, not Alchemy Brewing Company LLC." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"The pub Burnside Brewing Co. got ahead of the storm and decided to play it safe last night, and the pub will be closed all day today." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
