No great loss, I'd say.

Looks like the end for Wrekin Brewery (formerly Ironbridge) , both their pubs have changed hands the Fighting Cocks has gone to Hop and Stagger Brewery and the Pheasant where the Brewery was situated has gone to Rowton Brewery , Rowton are to continue brewing the bestseller Wrekin Gold but whether at the pub brewery or at their own is not yet known .

Their Wills Neck was the winner in SIBA's national competition 2013 and class Gold Medalist in 2013 & 2014, I vaguely remember it being a runner up in Camra's Champion Beer of Britain competition but that isn't on their website so I could be wrong. I had it around then and thought it a pretty good drop.
I've seen and tried Will's Neck in JDWs. Their Plastered Pheasant is on the current National list. I tried it in the Southsea JDW the Thursday before last and it was a pleasant enough strongish dark beer. You need to be quite a big brewer to get on the JDW national list as I would guess you need to potentially supply up to 200 barrels. Maybe they are just too big for the area they are based and of course there is cider as a distraction.
