Buffys brewery from Norfolk are to close due to the saturated marketplace.Use to see them regularly around London and at beer fests. Like Auqalung said it seems to be the older established brewers that are struggling to complete with the new kids.
Mordue Brewery, famous for beers such as Workie Ticket and Radgie Gadgie, has gone into administration. Article here:

Always though they were over rated but each to their own.
If you were one of the investors who gave £1.4 million to be part of the awesome beer community at Hopstuff brewery sorry but you have lost your money.Went into administration this week and are now owned by Molson Coors
It's a brilliant new business model. Crowdfund regularly from the internet, spunk it up the wall, go into Administration, sell your brand name to Molson Coors.
I sincerely hope that the creditors are paid every last penny that is wrung out of the process but as any regular reader of Private Eye will know, those at the helm of failed businesses often seem to have a few quid in their back pocket afterwards, somehow.
I have mentioned on here before about Hopstuff.When they had the last crowdfunding £800,000 they were valued at £10 million.Thats a lot of money for a brewery I rarely see on my jaunts around London.I think Aualung thought similar.We should see them more often as Molson Coors have a big contract with Wetherspoons.
