Nebraska Brewing Company In La Vista To Close After 18 Years
LA VISTA, NE — After 18 years in operation, Nebraska Brewing Company has announced it will be closing its doors. The La Vista-based brewery, known for its role in building the state’s craft beer industry, shared the news this week through a statement on social media.
Bankruptcy Filing Earlier This Year
While the company did not provide a detailed reason for the closure, it had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this year during what it described as “uncertain times.” The filing came as part of an effort to reorganize the business, but ultimately, closure became the final decision.
Brewing Legacy In Nebraska
Founded in 2007, Nebraska Brewing Company became a fixture not only in La Vista but throughout the state. Over the years, it developed a loyal following and gained recognition for its craft beers while also supporting charitable causes and local events.
In their announcement, the owners expressed gratitude to customers, writing: “It has been our pleasure to serve our community for as long as we have. We have been incredibly lucky to have met all of you and to be able to help create, support, and expand the craft beer industry and charitable causes, not only around Omaha, but the state of Nebraska.”
Closure Timeline And Updates
The brewery has not yet set a final day of operations, but management said updates will continue to be posted on the company’s official social media accounts. Customers and fans will have the opportunity to follow along as details emerge.
Impact On The Community
The closure marks the end of a long chapter in Nebraska’s craft beer history. For many in La Vista and Omaha, Nebraska Brewing Company was not just a brewery but also a gathering place that reflected the growth of the local brewing scene. Its impact on both the industry and the community will be remembered long after its final pint is poured.
