Disappearing and 'in peril' breweries

[london calling]

Oakleaf - presume they've run out of money for whatever reason

Binghams - health issue with the owner.

Brodies seem to have really fallen hard and fast. Their beers were a staple at the Nags a few years back. Not drank (or seen) any of theirs round here for well-over a year.

I have heard Binghams sell beer very cheaply.Brodies rarely seen apart from the pubs owned by the family.

Freeminer have been around for years. Maybe them supplying bottles to the Co-Op was a sign of problems.

Celt Experience are one I've tried in various Spoons and have ben excellent. Maybe they just don't have enough local outlets.

I'm glad you told ne about the Bull in Highgate as it saves me from ever going there again. I've heard that the Gate House under the new regime has a reduced beer choice and is generally a rip off.

Been told it was a 'life decision' by the brewer. But appears he hasn't put the business as a whole up for sale and is flogging it off piecemeal, which is a real shame. Celt were one of my favourites, La Tene was a classic down the Nags 2014-2015 one of the few beers not local that made repeat appearances.

In Kent The Dog House and Sunshine Brewery have just closed. Not sure if the brewery part ever really got going.

Having seen this, I've marked the Dog House as closed.
