FESTA BREW STATUS

FROM THE PRODUCERS OF FESTA BREW: March 17, 2025

Dear Valued Festa Brew Customer,

We’re writing to provide you with an important update regarding Festa Brew Kit production. After conducting several repairs to our equipment, we have encountered some additional issues that need immediate addressing. After careful consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to temporarily halt production in order to properly and completely service our equipment in order to avoid future interruptions in production. At this time, we do not have a specific timeline for when repairs will be completed as we are reliant upon multiple repair companies and replacement parts coming from out of the country. As a result, any current orders or new orders will be on hold until further notice.

  Due to this delay, we will also be unable to produce our spring seasonal Czech Pilsner as originally planned. However, we expect to be back on track with our Mexican Cerveza for the Summer seasonal. We sincerely thank you for your continued support and want to assure you that we’re doing everything possible to get Festa Brew back on your shelf as soon as we can.

  Thank you again for choosing Festa Brew. We look forward to continuing to serve you!
