After eight years of serving up craft beer, trivia nights and live music, Alabaster’s Siluria Brewing Company is closing its doors for good.

The longtime Shelby County gathering spot’s final day will be this Friday, November 13.

Siluria Brewing Company closes after 8 years

Founded in November 2018 by Danny and Tammy Sample, Siluria Brewing is a local microbrewery located inside the old Siluria Post Office at 145 1st Ave W in Alabaster. Taking its name and water tower-inspired logo from the area’s historic Siluria community, Siluria Brewing was designed to be a casual neighborhood gathering spot for residents in Shelby County. 

Beloved for its family-friendly atmosphere, Siluria Brewing had several famous in-house brews, including the popular Boxcar Blonde, Buck Creek Stout and Quarry IPA.

Now, after eight years in Alabaster, Siluria Brewing is preparing its final pour. 

According to a post made on Siluria Brewing’s social media on September 27, the reason behind the closing comes down to financial obligations from the brewery’s early years, which couldn’t be overcome despite the team’s hard work and support from the community.

Although they made the difficult decision to close, the owners of Siluria promise a celebratory final night:

“On Friday, November 13, 2026—we will open our doors one final time. We’re going to pour the beer, play our last Play On Music Trivia game, sing as badly as we want, laugh too loudly, tell the old stories, make a few new ones, hug the people who became family, and give this little brewery the goodbye it deserves.

And sometime that night, we’ll raise one final glass. To every friendship made here. To every song sung too loudly. To every trivia answer argued over. To every beer poured. And most of all, we’ll raise that glass to you.

Thank you for believing in this little brewery. Thank you for fighting for it alongside us. Thank you for loving Siluria. And thank you for giving all of us something that a financial statement could never measure: A community. A family. And eight years of memories we will carry with us long after the doors close.

Sincerely, Danny and the Siluria Staff”
