Walkerville Brewery Declares Bankruptcy

Every morning I wake up and check my inbox to review some of the daily reports I receive on the world of beer. This morning was no different but I was surprised to see an article from the Windsor Star dated yesterday claiming that Walkerville Brewery in Windsor had filed for bankruptcy.

The brewery was opened by Karen Bethune Plunkett in 1999 with Walkerville Lager as their flagship beer and have sinced rolled out Premium Blonde and Superior Light. Their Premium Blonde was recently awarded a gold medal at the Canadian Brewing Awards gala.
