UK: Over 1,300 sign petition to keep Ridley Brewery open

Over 1,300 people have signed an on-line petition calling for Greene King to reconsider its decision to close the Ridley Brewery, The Publican published on July 18.

The Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA), launched a petition to keep Ridley’s Brewery in Essex open following last week’s news that Greene King Brewery had purchased the company and planned to close the 163 year old brewery by the autumn.

Mike Benner, CAMRA’s chief executive said: “Ridley’s has been family owned since 1842, brewing excellent local beers. Greene King should reconsider its decision and sell the brewery as a going concern.

“To have over 1,300 people get behind the campaign in the first 24 hours shows that beer drinkers are concerned about losing a brewery that is part of Britain’s brewing heritage and the possibility of losing some popular beers brewed in Essex.”
