A landmark company in San Francisco has turned off its taps.
Anchor Brewing Company officials announced early Wednesday that it will cease operations and liquidate the business -- established in 1896 -- citing economic factors including declining sales since 2016.
"This was an extremely difficult decision that Anchor reached only after many months of careful evaluation," Singer said in the announcement."We recognize the importance and historic significance of Anchor to San Francisco and to the craft brewing industry, but the impacts of the pandemic, inflation, especially in San Francisco, and a highly competitive market left the company with no option but to make this sad decision to cease operations.
