    That could seal a bumper payday for Watt, who owns 21% of the company, proving that BrewDog’s brand of punk is particularly profitable.


    So very punk.

    This would seem to mirror the situation with the Camden Brewery, except that the founder 'only' trousered about £65m.

    Mr Watt is one punk who certainly feels lucky...

    So is Jasper Cuppaidge; note especially paragraph 6. Budweiser China is ok but not Inbev; Watt is a fitting anagram.

    I think this story featured on these pages at the time of closure. A clever b@gger could find it, no doubt!
