On May 18, 2020 rumors began circulating that the brewpub would be closing indefinitely, as employees were given notice that they were let go. This was first reported by the Chicago beer blog Guys Drinking Beer, and confirmed by [https://twitter.com/hopnotes/status/1262937781355057152 Josh Noel on Twitter] on May 19th and an article in the Chicago Tribune on May 20, 2020. In that article Nick Floyd confirmed he was keeping the brewpub closed indefinitely until he felt it was safe to operate again. The large planned expansion of the brewery & brewpub that had been announced a couple years prior was confirmed to be put on hold. This news makes it unlikely that there will be a Dark Lord Day festival in 2020.
