Idea

Introduction

It's time to think bigger and drink better.

Founded in 2007, Ascot Ales was bought by Chris Davies in 2017. Together with his son, Conor, they rebranded to Ascot Brewing Company and have since launched a secondary, multi-award winning, craft beer brand, Disruption Is Brewing.

In 2020, we built a formidable 8,500 sq. ft Brewery and TapHouse, which boasts a massive mezzanine bar with 20 taps, and hosts all types of events from beer festivals to comedy nights and corporate events to private parties.

Our goal is to build a community of like-minded individuals made up of different ages, backgrounds and preferences, who all have one thing in common - the thirst to enjoy positive shared experiences, each united by a powerful social phenomenon - beer. Because we believe that when great people and great beer come together, special moments happen.

Join the raise and share in our success as we look to become one of the top Craft Brewery & TapHouse Operators in the UK.

Monetisation strategy

Our business has two divisions – B2B (Beer 2 Business) and B2C (Beer 2 Consumers)

B2B includes those entities that resell our beer.

On-Trade & Off Trade, we sell cask, keg, cans & bottles. These are pubs (free houses & pubcos), taprooms, supermarkets, bottle shops & beer festivals. Recognising our reputation for great tasting beer and seeing us win awards enables us to open new accounts (av. 3 per week in 2021).

B2C includes sales through our websites & TapHouse.

We sell cans & bottles in addition to tickets for a wide network of events including Beer Festivals, Comedy & sporting fixtures.

This division includes the jewel in our crown - the dISruption TapHouse - on an amazing mezzanine floor, which uniquely overlooks the Brewery. Here we sell our beer directly to our customers, help us earn maximum gross margin. This is vitally important to growth.

With your support we will explore opening several similar units to the TapHouse – same appearance, décor & vibe within a 20-mile radius of our Camberley HQ.

Pitch type

There are 5 types of investment pitch available on Seedrs.

  • Equity
  • Convertible
  • Fund
  • Cohort
  • Secondary

Investing in a regular equity campaign is the simplest and most common way to invest in a startup. You decide which business you want to invest in, and if the campaign hits its funding target then you will become one of their shareholders. As the company becomes more valuable, so do your shares; allowing you the opportunity to share in the future success of the business.

Custodian

If you invest in this Campaign, Seedrs will act as Custodian rather than provide our standard nominee service. This is due to the fact that the business is not directly involved in the share sale and Seedrs will not benefit from any rights under a shareholder agreement. As a result, Seedrs will handle administrative tasks as we do normally, but you will not have information or voting rights, updates from the business, preemption on future fundraising, or ongoing support about business trading activity.

Secondary market

This shows if the business has opted-in or opted-out of allowing its shares to be bought and sold on the secondary market.

Business Involvement

This Campaign offers shares for sale in business that is not directly involved in this Campaign or the sale. As a result, the Campaign and post-investment experience, including investor rights, will differ from a business-led campaign on Seedrs. Most notably, the business will not engage with investors in the discussion forums both during and after the sale or provide any updates to investors.
