From TwinCities:
St. Paul’s Summit Brewing has laid off employees for the first time in its 32 years in business.
Founder Mark Stutrud said a changing and crowded craft-beer industry was partially to blame for Wednesday’s layoffs, which amount to about 10 percent of the brewery’s formerly 100-person workforce.
“In many ways we’re being very proactive, keeping ahead of the curve and making some adjustments,” Stutrud said. “The tough thing about it is that everyone who has left our organization, they’re really great people. We simply assembled a team to make much more beer than we’re making now.”
