Brewdog to close six bars due to soaring energy prices as CEO calls for government help

Scottish beer giant Brewdog has announced six bars across the country have closed due to the current rise in energy costs.

CEO James Watt took to social media to reveal the "heart-breaking" news that three pubs in Scotland are no longer in operation, while another three in London have put the shutters down for good.

It comes just weeks after Watt boasted about opening the "biggest bar in London" in Waterloo. In a post on Linkedin Watt said no Brewdog employees at the bars in Aberdeen, Peterhead and Motherwell would lose their jobs, instead they would be offered another role at a bar nearby.
