E-Malt.com News article: USA, IL: MyGrain Brewing going out of business

One of Joliet's microbreweries, MyGrain Brewing, located in the historic Union Station in downtown Joliet, is going out of business this weekend. MyGrain made the sad announcement on Thursday, August 17, the Patch reported.

"I am extremely sad that after six years we will be closing our doors permanently on August 19. It's been a long and fun journey for us, we loved being part of the Joliet community and helping the downtown area grow," the Facebook post read. "Unfortunately, we never fully recovered from the setbacks we experienced during covid and I do not want MyGrain Brewing Company to continue operating if we cannot bring you the service, food and brews that you have come to expect from us. Our customers and our employees deserve more than we can currently provide in these conditions.

"We have a few more days of open doors and full service. I hope to see all of our loyal customers this week and share our sincere apologies in person."

MyGrain's closing is the latest in a string of Joliet region breweries that have shut down recently. Others have happened in Mokena, Oswego and Romeoville.
