Down in one: how private equity swallowed the BrewDog Unicorn on.ft.com/4kNML1U

@MartinSLewis “If a jobs worth doing, it’s worth doing properly”. Over the age of 50 before I realised that is simply not always true!

TELL US: We oft talk about parents/grandparents wisdom, but today let's go rogue... what’s the WORST financial tip, advice or info u were ever given by parents or grandparents, when & why so bad? Pls reply below & my pod producer'll pick some to read out + do like ur faves.

@JosephKBennett @DanNeidle I suppose my point was that although the point of this may not be tax fraud, I bet tax fraud is happening, so HMRC could go after. Follow the money famously works for the Mafia.

Looking forward to hosting the Mainstage and Mixtape @FyneFest this coming weekend... 🙌 See you there?

@SVTgramma61 @BarssFreddie It sure is happening. Where are you seeing that is isn’t??

@BarssFreddie Would be awesome to attend! But not happening this year!

FyneFest is an award-winning, family-friendly beer, food and music festival set in the stunning surroundings of Glen Fyne. 30th may - 1st June .🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Filed the paperwork. Never figured I’d be a candidate. But these days, doing nothing isn’t an option. Colorado’s Third deserves someone willing to fight for it — not just talk about it. Here I am. Let’s get to work. #OurColoradoThird #AlexKelloff

We're teaming up with @SirenCraftBrew @ThePenFactory_ to host Parallel Pours - where carefully paired beers from each brewery will go head-to-head! Expect beers that mirror each other in style, character or inspiration. Join us for a pint, a chat and some good times 🍻

@FyneJamie @DanNeidle I think a shareholder who would invest in such obvious fakery would expect to be due for some tax advantage at some point, Dan hasn’t really spelled out what the purpose of this fake company is though

See you can do this, but you also need to ask why HMG doesn’t fund or particularly order HMRC to go after fraud like this at any scale. The loss savings would be inarguable. You will not get an answer

@DanNeidle @JosephKBennett Does that mean they are likely paying tax for on their income?

@JosephKBennett It’s not HMRC’s job. This isn’t tax fraud.

@MarkNJohnson @tabamatu Me too!!

@tabamatu I'm more than happy for every pub to sell it

Of the beer drinkers YouGov surveyed, a whopping 81% think consumers are being misled by global brands masquerading as ‘craft’. #indiebeeruk

@EwanMacDonald Good luck with the nexr venture. Hope DRS isn’t in your future

FYNEFEST 2025 ON SALE THIS FRIDAY 😱 fynefest.com (thanks to @hopforwardbeers for our shiny new site as well!)

This news tops off what has been a huge launch week for the @indiebeeruk campaign, building on the lobbying work happening behind the scenes. The detail and scope of the review will be important, but this is a hugely positive step forward.

Independent beer industry set to receive Budget boost as Chancellor eyes up plans to sell more pints from local breweries in pubs according to the @MailOnline dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Page 32 if anyone is interested.

@KimiCCOK @ilikeotters Sadly that’s not the case. We know consumers want to buy independent beer, but the basis the macro breweries tie those venues up means there is no way they can sell independent beer.

@ilikeotters I’m the same but I feel like I’m in the minority. If there was enough demand for indie, it would be available at music festivals, airports, pub cos. But all I ever see is the usual macros in crafts clothing. Let’s hope I’m overly pessimistic and wrong.

theguardian.com/business/2024/… This is really interesting

Friday will see @FyneAles taking over the taps. 6 cask and 3 kegs. But in the meantime we have beers on the bar from @TheBeakBrewery @two_flints @BlueBeeBrewery @brewyorkbeer @redwillowbrew @atticbrewco @AbbeydaleBeers
