Is If not, what's the whole point in it? How is the price dictated? It's basically total balls. When I bought my 'shares' they said they'd be on the AIM within a year - this was in 2011. Due to being at work, I'll have to wait until next year before I can hopefully sell these bags of shit to some twat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colb Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 I sent off to the share people for a password so I can print off my certificates , instead they changed my address - seems Brewdog really want me to keep my shares....

At that point you will be able to sell them on the stock market as you would any other AIM company. The current selling scheme is a way to honour the promise in the prospectus of being able to sell shares, but as they aren't listed it's a bit more convulted then before. Last time for selling you contact the company to say what shares you were selling and the price, then you sent the documents in after the sale, this time they want it before the sale, causing the mass panic and confusion many people are having. The stupid thing is that they have known they were going to be having the sale for the best part of the year, but left it to the the week before (before the change in date) to email everyone, citing the info being on the forum missing the point that not everyone goes onto the forum or can easily check the blog posts.

James Broonbreed Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 " As many of you are aware, our trading window was due to take place today. Due to unprecedented demand from prospective new investors registering interest in purchasing shares, the trading platform unfortunately crippled under the weight of attracted buyers, and was unable to open as planned.

Stroopy121 Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Who'd've thought that buying unlisted shares in a company build on cheap marketing ploys and pandering to fads would be a glorified Ponzi scheme? xx 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 I have always wondered exactly what the point was. Seemed a pretty shady cash grab, but I do know some fans who bought and more than paid for the shares with the discount. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I'm not sure what to make of all this. Seems like brewdog is trying to undercut an underfunded council out of money they're entitled to, which other large companies would pay out of civic duty as much as legal obligation. Then again, they make beers that say punk on em so can someone explain. Deal? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsum_Fantastic Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 A lot of people slagging the council for not moving from their valutaion of the land and this clown is on twitter saying he won't budge from his. Both to blame but Brewdog aren't coming out of this looking particulary good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hengist Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Does anyone doubt the size of Brewdog's business? They're looking to expand production hugely over the next 18 months and add a distillery operation in Ellon as well. To say nothing of the new brewery in Ohio and the numerous bars they have all over the world. These are not some tatty-looking guys in T shirts and jeans. Their marketing has been genius, and is bought into by loads of people who don't look any further than the cool self-created image. They are absolutely minted, and any "craft beer" description is gradually being diluted by mass production techniques. Meanwhile, they get punters to pay for their exponential expansion with very little return. Meantime, does anyone wonder where all those Sinclair waste tankers coming out of the factory every day are actually going? What's in them, and what's happening to it?

I'm going to guess that the tankers have the water effulent in them, which they can't dispose of through the sewerage system, but have a planning application in place to treat on site, which will benefit local farmers in cash to remove and enrich the land it is spread on.

There's an acre in Drumoak going for £450k with permission to build 3 houses on it. If nothing else Brewdog have motivated me to learn about planning permission and land costs in Aberdeenshire.

Jaaakkkeee Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 So in the past week there's been two stories, one of them threatening legal action against a pub for using the name Lone Wolf, because that's what they named their vodka, and another for using the name Draft Punk, and they say that infringes their copyright because they use punk in a lot of stuff (punk IPA, equity for punks etc) even though its so obviously a take on Daft Punk, the band, nothing to do with Brewdog. Both independent bars. It's really a piss take. They said it wasn't their doing and was the legal team acting of it's own accord, then put this on instagram.
