Is Brew City still in business?

    Well after 5 seasons, I finally cracked the cross shaft (carbon fiber) on my Brew City mount when I hit an underwater object, the bottom rotflol , fishing for crappies in backwaters. It was worth it since that area produced a 12 1/4″ crappie.
    It’s still usable but want to replace it with the new aluminum one.
    I can’t find anyone who has it in stock (Scheels, Thorne Bros, Fish Electronics, other online places). Well I did find one place in Canada but they don’t ship to the US. I have a text into Tim and an email through his website but nothing. I’ll try calling him this week.
    If anyone knows who has them in stock, please post here. Thanks

    Scheels shows them in stock. What’s the issue?

    Interesting. Looks like they were acquired by Acme Tackle Company. Maybe they could answer your question? Looks like everything is out of stock on Brew City page, wonder if they are transitioning over to Acme website or something?

    Picked up a Brew City pole setup for my new Mega Live 2 I have coming a month or so ago from my boat dealer. Also a few months back when a friend needed a mount, told him I was thinking about a Brew City and to look into it as I was getting one.
    Well, this week he calls and says where did I get that mount as he never got around to getting one, and leaves for LOW this coming week.
    Told him to call my boat dealer as they got it in 24 hr.
    Few minutes later he calls back saying dealer can’t get one, out of stock at supplier. I then tell him to call Brew City and order direct but he’ll have to pay shipping.
    Few minutes later he calls saying he can’t find phone #, and I say the link is right on their main page. Anyway, I find it and give it to him.
    Few min later he calls and says they are out of inventory and not sure when they are getting more. Then he asks if I got my Mega Live 2 yet and if not, says I wouldn’t need my pole and would I sell my mount to him. I laughed and said no way. He’s had months to get his, and not getting mine.
    So the moral of the story is, if you’ve waited till opening of fishing, you may be out of luck, but Brew city is still in business, just not much for inventory right now.
    Anyway, he calls me about an hr later saying he found one, but about a few hrs drive away and has to drive to go get it as they wouldn’t guaranty shipping in time. He said most places called said they were out of stock.

    It is a shame that Acme bought brew city. IMO they are a bad company that ruin good things they aquire by shifting the manufacturing to China. My guess is they have run out of locally made product and are waiting for the China made products to get here. Most likely made worse by the tariffs.
