West Berkshire Brewery is further extending its crowdfunding campaign until 24 June due to exceptionally high demand, after the company surpassed its £1.5m target.
Demand soared after the multi-award winning beer maker announced it had purchased a new £3m custom-built brewery and secured its first London pub, Shillibeer’s, earlier this month.
CEO of West Berkshire Brewery Simon Lewis said: “We are delighted to have secured this funding which will enable us to set up and run our new brewery, as well as running the extremely popular Shillibeer’s pub. We have huge plans for West Berkshire Brewery and we want to give as many people as possible the chance to join us on our journey, so we have decided to extend our fundraising campaign for a limited time.”
The crowdfunding initiative is part of a wider fundraising project to raise £4m to fund the expansion of the brewery via both the Asset Match and Seedrs platforms. Shares via Seedrs are priced at £3 per share, with a minimum purchase of four shares. So far the company has raised over £1.7m via Seedrs.
