It did confuse me!

Seems there were a few people with the same unfortunate experience, judging by the reviews.

Red Cat Brewing have gone into administration. Don't think I've had anything from them personally.

BBNo definitely a bit of a shocker.

I think perhaps it suffers as often being the token real ale offering in some pubs and especially round the North Yorkshire area. That said I've had some surprisingly enjoyable pints of their bitter...

One to file under potential peril...

I have to say, this one took me by surprise.

Alphabet Brewing Co of Manchester have announced their closure on social media today.

I've had some decent stuff from them on cask in years gone by, but the stuff they've been churning out in cans in recent years has been well below par. I could never be sure if it was a brewing...

Hearing that Wild Beer Co called in the administrators on Friday.

False alarm. Just moving premises.

A cynical person could suggest that they let a little rumour slip out and spread in order to encourage a flurry of online sales from people desperate to get a...

There is rumour that S43 (formerly Sonnet 43) has closed its doors, but can't find any official confirmation and in fact their latest Facebook post status "Maybe don't believe everything you hear" so...

I think some of their stuff was a bit experimental and they liked to dig out historical recipes and...

I was just about to post this. Agree this one is a shame.

I'm surprised they won't carry on brewing even if just in smaller batches for their bar - that would mitigate some of the issues with...

Hearing on Twitter that Worsthorne Brewing has gone bump. Based in Burnley, Lancs, a brewery name that rings a bell but I don't recall having any of their beers.

I had one of their beers at Salford Beer Festival in 2019 and was impressed. Not a brewery you see much of up north.

I've had mixed experiences with their beers, none really stood out, but as you say always sad to hear of a brewery disappearing.

Nice.

People seem to crowd fund for all sorts these days. Easy way to make money if you have a dedicated following I guess, without having to dream up a decent business plan that a bank would likely...

Agree with the other replies, that is a shame, I've only had a few of their beers but found them to be enjoyable.

I thought it accurately summed up the level of my sincerity!

Sadly :sick: I must have missed those!
