BrewDog to axe nearly 500 jobs in £33m rescue deal

BrewDog has been acquired by US cannabis producer Tilray in a £33m deal after the company was put up for sale. AlixPartners said the sale meant 38 venues will close, with the loss of 484 jobs. The future of BrewDog’s 60 UK pubs remains uncertain as negotiations continue for its assets in the US and Australia. BrewDog has faced financial struggles, posting a £37m loss last year and halting production of certain spirits.
