When the Rebel Pours Pause: Brewdog Shuts Bars for Corporate Reckoning 🍺
In Scotland, the rebel craft beer empire Brewdog has temporarily closed all its UK bars. One day. 60 locations. 1,400 employees in limbo.
Founded in 2007, Brewdog challenged corporate breweries, expanded globally, and became a symbol of craft rebellion. But recent losses, layoffs, and production halts tell a different story.
This pause is about more than beer. It’s about strategic decisions, corporate sales, and survival in a competitive market. Brewdog is trying to navigate the delicate line between innovation and financial reality.
