  I’m no fan of brewdog, but yet again a British company is being bought out and asset stripped by an american conglomerate.

    Doesn’t change anything for me at least, still going to mainly support local breweries and occasionally make my own. It is a shame about those jobs, hopefully those people go on to do something worthwhile in their industry, maybe start a new employee-owned venture?

  Bought during process of administration though, seems important but not in the headline. What a mess:

  The way in which senior management have conducted themselves throughout this sales process has been nothing short of a national disgrace

    Tax payer has to pay these poor people not the multi millionaire investors, because of the way they’ve done it

  That’s sad news. I really like their brand and products.

    Oh Jesus fuck why? Brewdog were right bastards. Trying to trademark “punk” is super not punk, and that is the least of their bullshit.
