100% not that I’d ever even consider it but saw an advert on Facebook for the Brewdog investment / equity crowdfunding pish 

Am I right in saying as they’re not a publicly traded company this ‘equity’ you’re buying only entitles you to some bonus perks based on what you invest but unless they do float on the stock market you can’t actually sell your investment or don’t get a dividend and are effectively funding the expansion of their business so the folk that own it can get more profits for themselves?

If I’m right what sort of fuckwit would consider it worthwhile

Anything Brewdog related reminds me of this from Burnistoun.





Used to work with a boy who said that every time he went to a new city, he felt the need to visit every Brewdog pub there, so he could tick them off his list. Wiggo

He was one of they “Equity Punks” and used to get a proper hard on for going to the AGM every year.

Unsurprisingly he looked very much like the guys in the YouTube clip above. Monty Oh Well

Warnock True.

I think your understanding of it is correct AFAIK Groot.

So it's a glorified Go Fund Me with perks worth approx 10% of your investment, most of which require you to pay them more money anyway (free meals % off drinks etc)

Wonder if Lawson's sister knows how to brew beer, although with the soul midwifery she probably prefers spirits

Think it’s just a bit like the foundation of hearts for a pub but you get a big free piss up once a year in Aberdeen.

Heard a few people say it’s quite good.

You’d imagine they will float at some point in the future and people that got in early could make some cash.

I doubt it! Why float when you can get mugs to give you money for fuck all every year? Jezza

The people who make money out of it will be the Private Equity investors the Brewdog ‘punks’ aren’t so keen to talk about Monty Oh You

Not a brewdog fan at all*. Punk IPA is directly responsible for every pub I go into having some grapefruit flavoured shite on draft instead of a good honest British ale APRant


*Disclaimer: 5am Saint is a great beer and I’d have no issue with them if they’d made that their flagship Monty Oh Well

They don’t give a shit about the small fry #Beardlove losers who want to be Equity Punks, it’s the private backers who’ll reap the rewards of anything they do.

Also agree on the beer front.*

*Hate that I agree on something else with Sarkozy

The Lost Lager is decent :Tony Hmm not that big a fan of their other stuff. Majorly overpriced overall.
