The Scoop: Six Row Brewing Co. ceases operations at Midtown brewpub

061015_sixrow     Over the weekend, news that Six Row Brewing Co. would close its doors at 3690 Forest Park Ave., was sudden and swift, as reported by St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The 5-year-old brewery and pub made the announcement via Facebook Saturday, June 6, stating that operations at the Midtown location would cease at the end of the day. Co-owner and brewmaster Evan Hiatt said the next step for Six Row could potentially involve a partnership, but he could not provide specific details. “As soon as we know that the partnership is going to solidify, then we’ll send out a press release,” he said. “I don’t have anything to release yet and the reason for closing is also tied into that.” The pub was popular with Midtown and area residents, who have lamented Six Row’s closing on social media. “People are bummed,” Hiatt said. “There’s no doubt about it.”
