Downtown beer-centric restaurant Flying Saucer Draught Emporium — one of the key players among Nashville’s early adopters of craft and international ales and lagers — will close this month after a 23-year run.

According to a social media post, the business will cease operations Wednesday, Dec. 15, with patrons who have a personalized Flying Saucer plate allowed to pick up the memento starting at 4 p.m., on Wednesday, Dec. 8.
