5 Branches Brewing of Tarpon Springs recently posted an open letter to their customers and community announcing the brewery’s impending closure. While the brewery’s closure is another in a line of 2024 closures, supporters of the brewery have just over a week to go and visit the brewery again, which is more than other breweries have been able to provide recently.
From 5 Branches Brewing:

Dear Valued Customers and Partners,
After five incredible years of serving this community, it is with a heavy heart that we announce the closing of 5 Branches Brewing. Unfortunately, due to ongoing health challenges, changes in ownership, and unforeseen circumstances, we have made the difficult decision to close our doors.
We want to take this moment to express our deepest gratitude for your unwavering support throughout these years. From our loyal customers to our dedicated partners, you have made these five years truly memorable and meaningful.
Our closing will take place on November 2nd 2024. Until then, we will be available to answer any questions or assist with any outstanding matters.
Thank you for allowing us the privilege of serving you. While this chapter is ending, the relationships and memories we’ve built will always remain in our hearts.

Warm regards,
From all of us,
5 Branches Brewing

About 5 Branches Brewing
5 Branches Brewing is a veteran owned and operated nanobrewery located in Tarpon Springs Florida. Approaching retirement after full-time careers in the Air Force and Army, fellow service members Ramey Simpson and Jerry Brown decided to pool their resources and launch a modest brewery they could operate after leaving the military.

In November 2019, they officially opened 5 Branches Brewing. The name pays homage to the five branches of the military – the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard. The brewery proudly supports the veteran community. They give back to the community by donating to many veteran charities and projects and continue to give back whenever possible. The brewery slogan is “Every Beer Has a Story”. Our mission is to create unique, clean, crisp, craft beer using quality ingredients, innovation, fun and creativity, while supporting and honoring all service members.
