BREWDOG – the country’s largest craft brewery – announced the closure of six of its UK pubs last week in a fiery statement which slammed the “clueless Government” for failing to take action on rapidly spiralling costs.
Soaring energy prices are threatening the existence of pubs across the country as the Government fails to get a grip on the cost of living crisis. But BrewDog has a raft of other headaches which could have contributed to its shock announcement on Wednesday it was closing around 20% of its UK locations, observers have suggested.
