Former employees and certain creditors of BrewDog's collapsed retail arm in the UK will receive no money from its administration, according to a report by administrators AlixPartners. The report cited insufficient funds due to lower asset realisations and higher costs. Around £489,000 was owed in staff wages and holiday pay, and £2.4 million to HMRC for VAT. The retail arm closed 36 bars, affecting nearly 500 workers, before US firm Tilray bought the brand and some assets for £33 million. Unsecured creditors, owed about £190 million, are expected to get less than a penny per pound.
