BrewDog's chief executive has revealed that he is lodging an official complaint with the BBC and Ofcom over the “dozens of inaccuracies and false claims” contained in its recent Disclosure documentary.
In a LinkedIn post, James Watt reflected on a “difficult fortnight” following the release of the programme, which followed up on allegations of a toxic work culture at the Ellon-headquartered brewer made by around 300 former and current employees in an open letter last summer.
It also contained allegations from former BrewDog USA workers, who said Watt's behaviour meant female bartenders were advised how to avoid unwelcome attention from him, saying his conduct made them feel "powerless".
