Brewery Founder's Insight: Spring Budget Reflections

Elijah Hacker @ 2024-03-08 13:53:58 UTC

Stroud Brewery's founder and MD, Greg Pilley, is disappointed and frustrated at the Government's lack of support for the pub and brewing trade shown by the recent Spring Budget, and predicts that the next year could see more pubs going out of business. Whilst alcohol duty was frozen for another year, this won't make any difference to the large economic pressures that pubs are dealing with at the moment, which led to 508 pubs around the UK shutting in 2023 with the loss of over 6,000 jobs.

On the Verge of National Recognition

Taylor Niblett @ 2023-08-22 12:25:24 UTC

Stroud Brewery’s summer of success continues as it reaches the finals of two national awards – its taproom has made it through two tough rounds to reach the final of Great British Pub Awards, and its session ale, Easy Peasy, is in the running for the title of New Beer of the Year.
