I took this picture as I passed Cardiff Brewdog a few days ago (its immediately over the road from the Principality Stadium in central Cardiff where Wales beat Italy on Saturday).
Its one of 38 bars closed at the start of March with nearly 500 job losses as Brewdog went into administration and was bought by US medical cannabis outfit Tilray.
Given that Brewdog always wanted to float on the Stock Exchange there is irony in the fact that the Administrators City of London offices are but a few minutes walk from the London Stock Exchange in Paternoster Square.


clicking on the ‘related posts’ below this, one noting the Cardiff Breeding opening and the other its one year anniversary, it’s striking how things change. You mentioned beer by Heavy Industry at BD. They were from a village near where I’m from and i loved their beer, but they suddenly stopped. Hopbunker was a great venue, even if the name was naff, and Gravity Station was ahead it its time (for Cardiff at least. And this week I saw a Wales online headline stating that Zero degrees is closing and becoming a restaurant.
brewdog not breeding!
