We knew it was coming, but that doesn’t make it any easier to report that [Bar 4](https://www.facebook.com/Bar4Bklyn) is officially gone. Fans have been taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Bar44Ever&src=typd&mode=realtime&ref=bklyner.com) and [Pinterest](http://pinterest.com/bar4brooklyn/bar44ever/?ref=bklyner.com) over the past several weeks to show their love for the local music institution. Here’s what some folks had to say:

> Bar4 has closed its doors. We have loved serving you since 1999\. Keep posting pics and vids to [#bar44ever](https://twitter.com/hashtag/bar44ever?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=bklyner.com) [pic.twitter.com/jyNMxxkOu9](http://t.co/jyNMxxkOu9?ref=bklyner.com)
