The Beer Store is shutting down operations at its Rideau Street location this fall on Oct. 14.

A spokesperson for the privately owned Ontario chain said it decided not to renew its lease for the downtown Ottawa building at 209 Rideau St. – but didn’t say why.

The tenancy agreement was set to expire on Oct. 30.

When asked, Bill Walker didn’t say whether the Beer Store will open another outlet at a different location in Ottawa or if the company has plans to close other stores in the city.
