UK Microbreweries to hit 10,000 in 5 years


We have been riding a wave of expansion in the number of microbreweries over the last 15 years but can the numbers continue to rise?

Many people in the industry are predicting an almighty crash after such a dramatic boom with the number of UK microbreweries surging past the 2000 mark.

For those that are still thinking about it here is some advice on microbrewery set up and here is a piece I've written recently suggesting that we are only at the start of an artisan revival of very small scale commercial brewing back to the original historic routes of brewing where every pub was a brewery.  This means that far from the boom in new microbreweries being over it could mean that the real boom in microbrewery numbers has only just begun.
