“A combination of low consumer confidence, lack of business support from the government, and post-Covid difficulties have led us to this situation,” the brewer said on social media.

“However, the brand remains strong and relevant, and the management team are determined to find a solution and are looking forward to announcing further developments as and when they are available.”

The company has posted a notice of intention to appoint administrators. This will protect the company from creditor action, but only for a few days.

Just two months ago the brewery revealed new branding in what it said was “the exciting next stage of our beer odyssey”.
