Not surprising news since we recently reported BrewBot was being forced to wind up by the taxman.
On Thursday, a Belfast court will be hearing the case against BrewBot and will likely grant the wind up order at that time.
As reported by Belfast Telegraph: http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/food-drink-hospitality/galway-brewery-taking-over-belfast-brewbot-bar-on-ormeau-road-36212433.html
"It is now unlikely that those who invested around £2,000 on the crowd-funding platform to get their own Brewbot will ever receive a machine."
Unlikely would seem to be an understatement!
I will try to follow the court case and post any relevant information (personally, I would love to see the accounting of BrewBot's operations to see where the money actually went to determine if this failure was due to Chris's incompetence, malfeasance, ignorance, criminal intent, or some other cause).
ASK: If you still have access to the BrewBot Kickstarter page, please paste a link to this blog/page over there so the other backers know now that the end is here.
And finally for today's posting:
If you wish to try to contact Chris directly, his FaceBook page looks like it is https://www.facebook.com/christophermcclelland
and his LinkedIn account is https://www.linkedin.com/in/cmcclelland/
