Brewery announces 'crushing' news of closure due to soaring costs

A popular brewery and taproom has announced it is to cease trading. Donkeystone Brewing Co. based in Greenfield, Oldham, made the announcement on its social media pages on Wednesday (March 22) blaming the 'current climate'.

The brewery, based in Wellington Industrial Park, made a range of original ales which could be bought in cans or served up in their own taproom at the brewery. They moved to the Wellington Industrial Park location in June of 2021 having originally launched in 2017 by Stephen James, Carl Pugh, and Alexander Smalley.

Having got through Covid lockdowns, a statement from the brewery said that the current climate for them and the hospitality industry as a whole had become 'insurmountable'.
