Pittsburgh-Area Brewery Shutting Its Doors

SARVER, PA ? A popular Butler County brewery will serve its last drafts this week. Cellar Works Brewing Co. will close after Saturday after a nearly eight-year run.

The closure announcement, made on the brewery's Facebook page, said the establishment never fully recovered from the pandemic and also was hurt by an ill-timed expansion effort.

"We have a lot to be proud of," the post stated. "We've made a lot of great beers - some even won very prestigious awards. Each iteration of our kitchen has knocked our socks off with incredible dishes.

"One thing we?re particularly proud of is our relationship with the community. Sarver and Saxonburg welcomed us and we did what we could to give back. We will treasure the many friendships we?ve made, especially those with our Cellar Society members past and present whose support kept us going during the very difficult pandemic years."
