Struggles of the Brewing Industry
The Brewers Association for small and independent craft brewers released a 2025 midyear report, which highlighted the struggles of this industry. The market has grown increasingly tough, with more breweries closing than opening in recent years. Production has also declined, prompting some breweries to shutter or pursue legal recourse.
Though the company did not provide a specific explanation, Three Weavers Brewing is likewise anticipated to be impacted by the current state of the market; the closest predictions point to the same financial difficulties of declining sales and growing expenses as for others.
Launched in Inglewood, Three Weavers Brewing was built around a mission to foster community through craft beer. The company gained popularity with a portfolio of beers such as Expatriate IPA and Seafarer Kolsch, along with some non-alcoholic beverage options. The award-winning independent brewery also distributes its beverages to different retail chains.
