“Due to one of our main distribution partners not paying us for our product, we are faced with a dire situation and are forced to temporarily close our doors while we find a new partner or buyer for the business,” officials said in a statement.
The post did not say who failed to pay the taproom for their product.
Pontoon Brewing opened its doors to the public in 2014, encouraging customers to embrace the “Pontoon Lifestyle” of escaping the daily stresses and relaxing on a Pontoon boat.

“Our employees mean the world to us, and it’s not fair to have them work for us while we are not certain we will be able to pay them,” the post said. “We are hoping this is just temporary, but the road ahead of us is a tough one and will take some time and luck!”
