Seems Heineken might be buying into Beavertown.

Heineken sees stairway to heaven

It is a prospect that the more hardened craft beer fans may not relish, but Beavertown Brewery is in talks with Heineken over the sale of a minority stake.

The north London brewery, founded six years ago by Logan Plant, son of Led Zeppelin’s Robert, had sought a new investor for several months to fund a move to a bigger production site next year.

Beavertown plans to move production of its Gamma Ray and Neck Oil beers to Belgium temporarily, pending the development of a new brewery and “visitor experience”, dubbed Beaverworld, due to open next summer.

According to Mergermarket, which broke the story, the deal under negotiation is similar to the Dutch brewer’s deal last year with Brixton Brewery, under which it took a 49 per cent stake to fund a move to a new brewery.

Like Brixton, Beavertown is expected to continue to be run independently after the Heineken deal.

Neither company would comment.​

Not surprising, cashflow becomes a real problem for small business once they reach a certain size and supermarkets want to start stocking their products. They want the product up front and won't pay until after it is sold. I have known a couple of small breweries go under because of this.
 
Hmmmm ..... all this talk of craft, cans, and cold makes me a little worries that real beer won't be served.

Comments on a recent promo event of theirs didn't give much encouragement.
