After three years quenching local thirsts, Hill Country-based Vista Brewing will close down its San Antonio taproom next month, its owners said Friday in a social media post.
“It is with a heavy heart that we are making the tough decision to wind down Vista Brewing’s San Antonio tap room,” the craft-brewing business wrote on Facebook. “We have loved being immersed in the San Antonio community for the last three and a half years but have found that it is just not the right time for Vista.”
The taproom’s last day will be Jan. 5, according to the post.
Vista opened its first San Antonio taproom in 2001 before relocating to 125 Lamar St. last fall.
The brewery’s retreat from the Alamo City is just the latest closure or downsizing as the craft beer industry recoils due to slipping sales and shifting tastes. Earlier this month, veteran-owned Man Overboard Brewing Co. said its last day in operation will be Dec. 22.
Although Vista Brewing is leaving San Antonio, the brewery’s headquarters and ranch in the Hill Country village of Driftwood will remain in operation.
