BrewDog: yet another hip company using 'rebel' language to sell its stuff

Kind of weird that no one seems to know anything about this 'concerted campaign of harassment, lies and fraud.'

If he's looking for damages, he's going to have to prove reputational damage and that might get interesting :D
He literally says he is not after money…


He concluded: "This was never about money for myself or Martin. Ever. We could have cashed out years ago, never bought the Lost Forest, never signed off a further £70m+ investment this year alone.

"It’s about doing something different and building a business we are proud of and I’m sorry that there are a handful of people on a criminal mission to bring us down."

You actually swallow all this horseshit? That is so funny.
 
Walking past Marble Arch just now, this sage fella said:

"He has given freely to the poor,
His righteousness endures forever;
His horn will be exalted in honor".

I thought he was probably pissed and talking bollocks but it turns out it's from the bible (psalm 112:9)

It just reminded me of James Watt, a bit.

Yeah BD reminds me of the Bible too.

Turning water into whine.
 
SpookyFrank actually referred to him as "chief"

Which is outrageously offensive to Native Americans, and comparable to the "N" word in some their communities.

Disappointing.
Is that true? If so my calling the chief engineer just chief, or any other chief something just as chief is offending a lot of people. There's a lot of professions where people are referred to as chief rather than by full title when talking to them.

James Watt and Martin Dickie literally flogged off a chunk of the company to venture capitalists for £100 million years ago.

What's your point? You keep posting things without any comment of your own and then acting as if you're just some kind of neutral information service making sure we're all kept up to speed. But the cumulative slant of the things you've chosen to post tends to give the impression that you have a stake in Brewdog, possibly in some marketing or PR capacity.

If that's not the case, why not share some of the negative, damning info about them too? Or, I don't know, actually express your own opinion on the rights and wrongs of the stuff that's happening?
 
Your taste in beer = Brewdog are not pricks. HTH.

:hmm: Well there's a severe failure going on here, isnt there?

Even if it were so though, you would almost certainly come away from our night out, better informed, and quite probably better looking. Look at it as a self improvement opportunity.

I get the impression that people are so eager to be negative & damming about them that they fail to read & fully comprehend information provided.

I dont care about Brewdog really, i quite like hoppy, citrusy craft beer.

I think the owner is probably a bit of a tosser but probably not a massive tosser but dont think he is the devil incarnate

i think my point was that he was not interested in suing someone for libel/slander going by what he said in the article anyway

Which parts about the bullying of his staff and his creepy attitude towards women have we all failed to fully comprehend?

Well, it's an astonishingly generous offer. I'll let you know if I change my mind.

Maybe the fact that he's now suing the director of a media agency for a campaign of untrue allegations about him?

As I said earlier, this could be a very interesting case.
 
Let's wait and see what the trial reveals.

That one person is very clever, it's true.
Wait - so you're actually suggesting that the people who appeared in the BBC documentary weren't telling the truth?
And all those testimonies on the web site were made up with this 'very clever' woman engineering the whole campaign?

Wow.
 
Here's how many people signed that open letter to Brewdog. Most have used their real names:


plus one hundred and six anonymous former staff, and thirty-nine current staff (and counting, as of 1st July 2021) who did not feel safe to include either their names or initials. Make of that what you will.
