Brewery company Anheuser-Busch announced it is closing its New England plant early next year.

The beer company, known for brands like Budweiser and Bud Light, will shutter its facilities in Merrimack, New Hampshire and Fairfield, California in early 2026, it said in a statement to Boston.com

Anheuser-Busch will offer the 475 full-time employees at the three facilities full-time roles at the nearly 100 other plants around the country, a spokesperson said.

Employees who choose to transfer locations will receive relocation stipends, and those who do not will receive severance packages, according to the company.

“These changes will enable us to invest even more in our remaining operations and in our portfolio of growing, industry-leading brands,” a spokesperson said in a statement.
