On January 25 an explosion took place in the building that houses Victory Brewing’s Kennett Square taproom causing a raging fire and a partial building collapse.

The good news is, it appears that there were no injuries (the taproom is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays), but there are apartments located above the taproom in the historic Kennett Square, Pennsylvania building and those residents have been displaced.

In an Instagram post Victory Brewing issued this statement…

“Tonight, around 6:30PM there was an explosion and fire in the 600 block of W Cyprus St in the building where the Victory Brewing Company – Kennett Square taproom is located.

Our taproom was closed for business today, so no customers or team members were in the building at the time of the incident.

We now have a team on site and are working with the fire and police departments to gather information around this unfortunate incident. We are not aware of any injuries that were uncovered during the initial investigation.

We will continue to work with authorities and with the Red Cross to learn more about what occurred this evening and how we can help our neighbors in the building who have been displaced.

For now, we are praying for the safety of those involved and want to thank the first responders who quickly arrived on site, safely aided in the evacuation of the building and are working to control the fire.

We will update you as more information becomes available to us during the investigation.”
