BrewDog beers axed by almost 2,000 pubs
BrewDog faces financial losses of £59 million in 2023 and closure of 10 bars due to rising costs and reduced consumer spending, with Punk IPA pulled from nearly 2,000 pubs.
- BrewDog announced in July 2025 it would close 10 branded bars across the UK, including its flagship bar in Aberdeen.
- The company made this decision after a strategic review citing ongoing industry challenges, rising costs, and declining pub trade viability.
- Separately, nearly 2,000 pubs have dropped BrewDog beers, especially its Punk IPA, which was removed from about 1,980 venues mainly owned by large pub chains.
- Chief executive James Taylor said in a Telegraph interview that the company would again make losses this year, facing pressure from rising costs and changing consumer spend.
- BrewDog intends to prioritize growth through key outlets such as festivals, sports venues, and independent pubs, while striving to safeguard employment where feasible.
