Beloved NJ Brewery Announces It's Closing Its Doors After Only 5 Years In Business

As a self-proclaimed beer lover, this breaks my heart.

According to their Instagram Page, it appears as though South 40 Brewing will be closing its doors permanently on June 14th.

For the past five years, South 40 has been a hot spot for not only beer lovers but for dog lovers, local businesses, and gamers alike.

They regularly hosted colabs with local businesses, and were a dog-friendly brewery; a place you could bring your dog, grab a brew, and hang with friends.

South 40 would also host game nights, having nights like Dungeons N' Drafts, where people could get together, play Dungeons and Dragons, and have a few beers with friends.

South 40 will be missed, so be sure to pay them a visit before it's too late.
