Crucible Brewing, a popular local brewery in Everett started by two childhood friends, will be shutting down by the end of 2025.
At one point, Crucible Brewing has expanded beyond Everett to a second location in Woodinville. They closed that location last year.
Celebrating their 9th anniversary in Everett two days ago, Crucible Brewing will, sadly, not experience a 10th anniversary.
Dick, one of the founders of Crucible Brewing
Here’s the message they shared with customers:
After much thought and reflection, we’ve made the difficult decision to close the doors of Crucible Brewing at the end of the year. This journey has been one of the most incredible experiences of our lives, and we are deeply grateful for the support, laughter, and memories we’ve shared with all of you.
When we started this adventure, the beer industry was a different place, full of opportunities and challenges that we embraced with enthusiasm. Over time, the landscape has shifted, and so have we. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished, but we’ve reached a point where we feel it’s time to pass the torch and move on to new chapters in our lives.
We are tired, but our spirits are high as we look back on all the good times we’ve had here. Our community has been the heartbeat of this brewery, and the friendships we’ve made will last a lifetime. It’s been an honor to serve you, share stories over a pint, and be a part of this vibrant community.
Shawn, one of the founders of Crucible Brewing
That said, we believe the story of Crucible may not be over yet. We’re actively looking for someone who shares our passion for craft beer and community to carry the torch and continue the good work we’ve started here. If you or someone you know is interested in taking over the reins, please reach out to us at info@cruciblebrewing.com. We’d love to discuss how you can be a part of the next chapter of this brewery.
Unless we find a new Owner in the coming months, we plan to be open until the end of the year. So there’s still time to come by, share a drink, and make a few more memories with us. We’ll also be hosting a final event to celebrate the good times, and we hope you’ll join us to raise one last glass together. Stay tuned for more details on our closing event.
As we prepare to close our doors, we want to thank each and every one of you for your unwavering support. Whether you were here from the beginning or just discovered us recently, you’ve made this journey worthwhile.
Thank you.
Crucible Brewing will be missed. They hosted many fun, unusual events from epic Halloween parties to an annual Shawnfest, celebrating the birthday of one of the founders. They also had many collaborative beers and often featured other local independent breweries.
If you happen to be reading this article today (Saturday 10/5), they are having an anniversary “fire sale” on all of their barrel aged products. plus 25% off everything, and an additional 10% of you purchase a full case.
Let’s hope someone is interested in taking over the reins. Regardless, you only have 3 months left to stop by and enjoy one of their beers.
