After leaving the Mountaineers, Brewer started a sales career before enlisting in the United States Navy during World War II.〔 After the war Brewer served as secretary and administrative assistant to United States Senators Josiah Bailey and William B. Umstead, respectively.〔 He gained significant wealth by purchasing land that was used later for roads. In 1963, Brewer was sentenced to 18 months in state prison for bid rigging. Kidd Brewer Stadium, Appalachian State's home football venue, was named in his honor on September 3, 1988.
