Ingenious Brewery in Humble is closing. Last day is January 6th

NeverPayRetail : Where are you seeing that?

A friend and I were talking about this just yesterday. I went once when they first opened and had a good experience but any other time after when I'd meet friends or go out, we would just never think about Inginious. They just slipped our minds and we have so many other options that are constantly marketed to us that we'd pick other places not over Inginious but bc we kind of forgot they existed. In my opinion, their marketing and distribution strategies are just not adequate to sustain a successful budding brewery in such a competitive area. I hope they do well in future endeavors.

NeverPayRetail: What is your source? I've heard rumors but I just looked at their webpage and their FB page and don't see anything announcing a closing. I also ran a Google search and found nothing but THIS thread. Joe, have you heard anything about this rumor?

Heathur : Are they closing just the taproom or everything?

donnatella : Idk, which is why I removed my post. I'm not personally in the bar industry but one of my best friends is so I get the tea on a lot of that stuff from her lol.

donnatella : Inginious's most recent IG post kind of sounded like it was confirming everything. And all the comments on that post were "I'm so sorry" "It's been a pleasure." etc

Heathur : Thank you for the confirmation, but maybe not so much the sad news.

donnatella : From the craft beer community. Plus one of the owners posted in a FB post as many others were trying to get some sort of confirmation.

TWO local craft breweries (maybe a third) announced they were going to close. The customers at City Acre bought them and they are scheduled to reopen soon. At another one, a different local craft brewery bought them. Even B-52 in Conroe sold to the owners of Fortress in Spring. Southern Yankee (brewery only) announced they're looking to sell their brewery & taproom part.

donnatella :
My SIL follows them and said it's true. They even opened a 2nd canning area and yet still closing. He likes their beers. I dont care for the funky flavors, but sad to see them close.

I didn't even know it existed. Maybe too many others didn't either.
