I was just catching up on some reading and I see that Bavarian Barbarian is going out of business. That was kind of a shocker to me. Although their bottles haven't made their way to my neck of the woods yet, I always enjoy their beer at the festivals. Their beers were really good, and most of them seemed to enjoy above average ratings. I wonder what happened? It can't be because of the beer. Anyone have more details? Bad business model? Or was it the location? Anyone know? It's said to see a really good PA craft brewery go under, while the rest of the beer scene elsewhere is just exploding.
Try here - Bavarian Barbarian Brewing Co - Closing! Also, a rant on Pro-Brewer entitled "Distasteful and Rude" by the brewer/owner after he announced the closure.
Well that pretty much explains it then. It sounds like they weren't making enough to pay the bills. Overhead must be a bitch.
