COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- A Near East Side brewery and taproom specializing in sour beers is closing in August after seven years of business.
Pretentious Barrel House -- located at 745 Taylor Ave. near Bexley -- announced on Facebook that it would shut down on Aug. 11. The brewery did not specify the reason for the closure, but thanked those who had been loyal visitors over the years.
"I want to extend my deepest gratitude for your unwavering support over the past seven years," the post said.
Since it opened in 2017, Pretentious has exclusively made barrel-aged sour ales. The brewery's website touts its "extensive knowledge of the symbiotic relationship between beer and wood," which it said results in consistent and quality sours.
Skee-ball was also offered at the brewery -- its website advertised sign ups for an eight-week season.
The brewery will remain open under its regular hours of operation in the meantime. It urged fans to come by for one last visit.
"We encourage you to drop by for a final pint of our beloved barrel-aged beer," the post said.
