I’m glad we once again allowed the worst people on Earth to destroy everything we have for a quick buck.
As an american, I apologize on behalf of these people. I know things aren’t going great over there for you guys too but I very much want to hop over and not come back.
I can’t speak for Australia, but I have a great American colleague and I’m sure you’d be welcome here if you can find your way over.
Let's sell our country piece by piece to foreign nations so they can siphon every penny they can to their own coffers, then let them shut it all down once they've bled us dry! Yay! We r smort!
How can one of the most ubiquitous and popular ales in the UK not be financially sustainable? What did they do to that brewery? Lump it with a bunch of debt or something and write it off?
I know several people who work there and I used to live within sight of the building. I remember when Sharps was a small but popular micro-brewery just starting to get national recognition.
I predicted that this would happen as soon as I heard Molson-Coors were moving in. Not quite sure how a business that turns over £16m and makes 100,000 barrels a year is unsustainable. Hopefully someone can buy the site and continue producing.
Wow, that was one of my favorite beers when I lived in the UK. Such a shame.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
