Recession Watch: The Brewery Closes its Tab
Back taxes and liquor license status confusion have claimed the Marietta Brewing Company as a victim yesterday, according to an article from the Marietta Times.
The Brewery, as it was known in the area, owes nearly $400,000 in back taxes to the federal government, over $30,000 to the state of Ohio, and over $15,000 to a food service company. Â Their liquor license was extended back in October, then extended again to allow the sale of liquor and beer until after their tax case had been heard.
According to the article, The Brewery’s liquor license is still good, as the case has not been heard yet.
The Brewery is for sale, but for now, a popular local nightlife location has been closed. Â Readers, tell us your thoughts in the comments.
