“Small businesses that receive support are 20%

            more likely to grow than those that don’t”* 
                                                     

This is as true today as it has always been.  With over 2,000 breweries now operating in the UK and beer sales still falling, competition has never been greater.  Microbrewers are all faced with similar questions…
