Welcome to a bonus Friday edition of your Daily Detroit.

Today, we discuss the sad news that Axle Brewing will shutter its Livernois Taproom June 30th, barely two years after it first opened.

Dave Phillips, one-half of Podcast Detroit and the IT in the D podcast, and himself a former partner in a failed craft brewery, joins us to discuss how difficult it is to succeed in an uber-competitive sector, where even established brands have to fight for shelf space, and drinkers like me fret about overabundance.

Axle President Dan Riley told the Freep the brand doesn’t have the scale or cost structure to see a “clear path” to turning a profit.

Elsewhere:

• Detroit may be dealing with a serial killer after three women believed to be prostitutes were found dead in abandoned homes on the city’s east side. Tipsters are asked to call (313) 596-2260. [Detroit News]
• There’s an update on Dan Gilbert, nearly two weeks after the billionaire real estate developer suffered a stroke.
• Detroit’s Public Lighting Authority is starting to replace those malfunctioned LED streetlights while a lawsuit against the company that made them proceeds.
• Hatch Detroit has doubled its prize to $100,000 for aspiring business startups looking to open brick-and-mortar storefronts in the city.
• Fresh Wagon, a bus service connecting Detroit neighborhoods to Eastern Market, has shut down.
• Grosse Pointe Park is getting a new pizza joint called The Bricks.
• And happy National Doughnut Day! We bring you some truly ridiculous trivia.

Last week the FMCSA listened to drivers to find out what they want to change in the hours of service regulations. Mississippi lawmakers are working hard on transportation issues, which includes a special session recently held to address the problems. And the FMCSA is asking some very specific questions in its ANPRM on hours of service. We’ll have all the details on tonight’s show.

Every good house has a good foundation. And a truck is much the same. A key part of that foundation is the suspension. Barry Spillman and Mark Reddig will talk drive axle suspension upgrades with Bryan Martin of the Chrome Shop Mafia.
