Arktos Meadery, a spot many in Grand Rapids called their go-to for unique brews and good times, is closing for good on August 31. The owners say the recent loss of nearby parking—cleared for a new soccer stadium—hit them hard, and sales just never bounced back. This isn’t just about one business: for the first time in nearly 20 years, more U.S. breweries closed than opened in 2024. It’s a tough moment for craft beer lovers and local businesses. How do you think these changes are shaping our city’s vibe and culture? #Business #GrandRapids #CraftBeer
