Dear Valued Art of Brewing Customer,
As we reflect on the events of the past year, it is with mixed emotions that we write to you today. Exactly a year ago, the Art of Brewing faced a devastating fire, leading to a whirlwind of challenges as we navigated insurance claims, personal upheavals, and contemplated the future ahead.

After much consideration, we have made the heartfelt decision not to reopen the Art of Brewing. While this choice hasn't been easy, we are choosing to embrace new opportunities and are looking to a fresh course forward.

Though we understand this may come as disappointing news, we believe in prioritizing our well-being and seizing the joys life has to offer- after all, life's too short not to.

For those seeking wine-making services and supplies, we're pleased to direct you to local alternatives: The Brew Shop Too in Trail, Pivo Vino Bru-in at the Playmor Junction or The Squeezed Grape in Castlegar.

From the depths of our hearts, we extend our deepest gratitude for your loyalty and support throughout our 23-year journey. Your kind words, gestures, and encouragement following the fire have meant the world to us.
THANK YOU!
As we embark on new adventures, we look forward to crossing paths with you - whether it's on the ski slopes, hiking trails, or in the community of our beloved Nelson.

Warmest regards, Breg and Maarten
