Opened in August of 2015, Kearny Mesa’s Magnetic Brewing will not be celebrating a second anniversary this month. An eviction noticed was recently posted at the Cabrillo Commerce Center on Magnatron Blvd.
Multiple requests for comment from Magnetic’s Morgan McCarty went unanswered.
Last August, the 1.5-barrel nano-brewery started a GoFundMe crowdfunding campaign offering 1% equity in the company in exchange for $6,000.
The campaign was subsequently taken down, with McCarty admitting in a Facebook post that “Gofundme has deleted the campaign because you’re not supposed to offer securities through their site.”
West Coaster will follow up when more information becomes available.
