E-Malt.com News article: USA, PA: 21 Locks Brewing Company closes after less than one year in business

After less than a year open, 21 Locks Brewing Company has announced its closure in social media posts just a few days before the New Year, Breweries in PA reported on January 6.

The brewery first opened in May/June 2025 during the Canal Fest weekend.

21 Locks operated in a 15,000 sq/ft building in Morrisville, PA, and featured house roasted coffee and pizza, in addition to its own craft beer.

The brewery posted the below message on December 31st, 2025, on their Facebook account.

This is not a message we thought we’d be sending. After much thought, we’re sharing that 21 Locks Brewing Company will be closing its doors.

In the end, there were challenges we couldn’t overcome, despite meeting them with energy and intent.

That said, in the short time we had, this place became something very meaningful to us. Built around a simple idea of Coffee. Pizza. Beer., 21 Locks was created to be a welcoming space for our community to gather, connect, and celebrate.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who supported us this year: our guests, regulars, staff, musicians, vendors, neighbors, and friends. Your encouragement, conversations, and presence made every long day worth it. Though our time was brief, the memories and relationships will stay with us always. Thank you for being part of our story.

Before we close, we do want to share that two previously scheduled events will still take place with the help of our friends and neighbors at Ashlynn Distillery: Country Line Dancing with DJ Ashley Rose on Friday, January 2, and Derailed Comedy on Friday, January 9. We’re grateful to Ashlynn for helping ensure these events can still happen for the community.

With full hearts and sincere gratitude,
The 21 Locks Team.
