After nearly a decade of serving the community, Twenty-Six Acres Brewing Company in Concord, NC, is closing its doors for good next weekend.

The local taproom, known for its exceptional craft beers and community-focused atmosphere, announced the difficult decision on Instagram.

Here's a quick overview:

• Closing Date: Sunday, August 18.
• History: Opened in 2016, becoming Concord’s third brewery.
• Reason: Although not specified, the closure reflects a broader trend of local brewery shutdowns in the Charlotte area.
• Community Impact: The taproom was a family-friendly and dog-friendly space that hosted events like trivia and poker nights.
• Final Week: The last week will include these signature events, giving patrons a final chance to enjoy the brewery’s offerings.
• Location: 7285 W Winds Blvd NW, Concord, NC 28027.

“While this chapter may be coming to an end, the memories and friendships forged within our walls will continue. Thank you once again for being a part of our journey. We raise a final toast to the memories we’ve created together and to the future adventures that await each of us,” Twenty-Six Acres’ team said.
