Grab one for the road.

The Penn Cove Brewing Company, which was launched by Coupeville High School grads Mitch and Marc Aparicio in 2016, is closing in two days.

The closure affects all of the company’s locations.

The announcement:

 

Dear Penn Cove Members and Customers:

It is with a heavy heart that we share the unfortunate news of the closure of Penn Cove Brewing Co. as of the close of business, January 21, 2024.

After much consideration and a thorough evaluation of our financial situation, we have had to make the difficult decision to cease operations.

The decision was not made lightly, and we want to express our deepest apologies for any inconvenience or disappointment this may cause you.

As valued members of our Penn Cove Brewing Co. community, your support has been the backbone of our establishment, and we are truly sorry for any impact this closure may have on your experience with us.

We understand that Penn Cove Brewing Co. has been more than just a place to enjoy great beer; it has been a gathering space, a community hub, and a shared experience for all of us.

The decision to close has been a painful one, and we want to take a moment to express our gratitude for the memories, friendships, and moments we have shared together.

In the coming days, we will be working to facilitate the closure process, and we are committed to providing support and information during this transition.

Because of this closure there may be new opportunities for entrepreneurs and/or investors to buy part of, or the entire company.

If you have any questions about the prospect of ownership, or future partnerships, please feel free to reach out to me directly at marc@penncovebrewing.com for details.

We want to sincerely thank our Members and the Whidbey community for being a part of the Penn Cove Brewing Co. family.

Your presence and support have made a significant impact, and we are grateful for the community that has grown around our brewery.

While this chapter is coming to an end for us, we hope that the memories and connections made at Penn Cove Brewing Co. will stay with you.

It has been our privilege to serve you, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Thank you for understanding,

Sincerely,

Marc Aparicio

Penn Cove Brewing Co.

Cow Town for the wet and wild win.

A Coupeville quartet stood tall at the annual Penn Cove Classic, combining to shoot 14 under par to top a field which pushed 60 duffers.

CHS grads Steven Dozier, Jared Murdy, and the magnificently bearded Matt Helm were joined by Wolf Dad Fred Farris on the victory stand.

The annual golf tourney, sponsored by Coupeville brothers Mitch and Marc Aparicio through their Penn Cove Brewing Co., raises money for scholarships and local non-profits.

While liquid sunshine plagued the event, it never put a damper on things.

“We had a blast yesterday, despite the rain,” the Aparicio brothers said.

“Thank you to all the hole sponsors, our customers who donated amazing raffle prizes and the volunteers who made this day happen!

“All the support of our small Whidbey business is greatly appreciated.”

Tourney winners “The Whidbey Golf Boys.”

Local golfers and business owners combined recently to honor the memory of Bennett Boyles and raise $10,000+ in his name.

The fifth edition of a memorial tournament for a young Coupeville basketball star who bravely fought cancer will benefit both the WhidbeyHealth Foundation and the Community Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools.

The tournament drew 87 players, with “The Whidbey Golf Boys” taking top honors.

That foursome consisted of Arik Dahlen, Mike Lacey, Dan Phillips, and Ryan Bryne.

The tourney was organized by Mitch and Marc Aparicio, with the support of their employees at the Penn Cove Brewing Company.

Bennett Boyles 

Registration is open for the 5th annual Bennett Boyles Memorial Golf Tournament.

The tourney, which honors a Coupeville Middle School student who passed away in 2017 just shy of his 13th birthday, is put on by the Penn Cove Brewing Company.

Bennett, a basketball player and member of Coupeville’s Class of 2022, waged a remarkable battle against autoimmune encephalitis, in which the immune system attacks the brain.

Even while undergoing frequent radiation treatments in an attempt to slow the growth of inoperable tumors on his brain stem, his smile never wavered.

Former hoops teammate Hawthorne Wolfe has worn Bennett’s name on his basketball shoes as he has pursued their mutual hardwood dream, and the CHS boys basketball program left a seat open in his honor during a cancer fundraiser.

Penn Cove Brewing owners Mitch and Marc Aparicio have used the golf tourney to pay tribute to their fellow Coupeville native, while raising money for several charities.

Even with the pandemic affecting things in 2020, the tourney pulled in a record 83 players, with money raised being split between the WhidbeyHealth Foundation and the Community Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools.

This year’s tourney is set for September 25th, with a 1:00 PM shotgun start at the Whidbey Golf Club in Oak Harbor.

Proceeds from the 2021 event will go to support patients and families through WhidbeyHealth’s Pediatric Rehabilitation Services, and to provide scholarships to Bennett’s graduating class.
