August 7, 20179 yr Brew Minds @Brew_Minds: Just received confirmation that Blank Slate is closed effective immediately. I will be reaching out to them shortly and will get more info. The Greater Cincy Craft Beer community is a bit at a loss right now as it was just announced that Blank Slate will be ceasing their operations immediately. Lots of speculation but no real answers right now. I feel like there has to be more to the story than just closing. Seems like if that were the case, they would have had one last bash to tell all their fans thank you and goodbye. Their most popular beer was probably their Opera Cream Stout, which was great. I loved their Fork In The Road, which might be my favorite Amber I've had. Was just there last weekend.
August 7, 20179 yr Wow. I was under the impression they were doing very well. I'm with you. Has to be more to the story.
August 7, 20179 yr I saw this earlier today, I'm pretty sad as they're one of my favorites in the city. They deleted all of their social media accounts.
August 7, 20179 yr Author Wow. I was under the impression they were doing very well. I'm with you. Has to be more to the story. They just had a bottle release on Friday too.

He said he knew more, but wasn't willing to go in to detail about it.
August 11, 20179 yr They ran out of money. Blank Slate Brewing Company: This is the end...beautiful friend...the end.
August 11, 20179 yr I hate to see a homegrown operation close it's doors, to think he didn't even make a dime shows how much he loved his craft.
August 11, 20179 yr I can see this happening quite a bit over the next few years. As many breweries that are opening, there is no way that the can all make it.
