You Fancy a Pint and a Punt? How to Become a BrewDog Equity Punk
Ever gazed longingly at a bottle of BrewDog's Elvis Juice, then sighed dramatically because you knew you couldn't afford to buy the brewery itself (same, my friend, same)? Well, fret no more! Because for a mere fraction of the cost of a small island nation, you can become a bona fide BrewDog Equity Punk. That's right, with a few savvy moves, you can be sipping on a Dead Pony while patting yourself on the back for being a part-owner of this maverick craft beer company.
How To Buy Brewdog Shares |
Here's the Lowdown (without the yeast puns... mostly)
There are two main ways to snag yourself some shares:
Tip: Read mindfully — avoid distractions.![]()
- Become an Equity Punk via BrewDog's Website: This is the official route, straight from the source. Head over to https://support.brewdog.com/support/solutions/folders/11000010035 and apply for shares. It's pretty straightforward – fill out the form, pick your payment method (pretend it's a choose-your-own-adventure for beer styles), and voila! You're on your way to becoming a shareholder with benefits (more on that later).
Word to the Wise: Applying during an Equity for Punks round can be a bit like trying to snag concert tickets for your favorite band. Spots fill up fast, so be prepared to act quicker than a hummingbird on Red Bull.
Tip: Make mental notes as you go.![]()
- The Private Seller's Pint Glass: This method involves a touch more finesse, like swirling a snifter of Paradox Jura before taking a sip. There's a community forum for Equity Punks (https://www.brewdogshares.com/), where existing shareholders can buy and sell shares amongst themselves. It's a great way to get involved with the community, but be sure to do your due diligence before handing over your hard-earned cash (just like you would when checking the IBU on a new IPA).
So, What's in it for You? (Besides Bragging Rights at the Bottle Shop)
Here's the beauty of being an Equity Punk: you get more than just a fancy title (although, that is pretty darn fancy). Shareholders are treated to a bunch of perks, including:
Tip: Break long posts into short reading sessions.![]()
- Discounts on that Sweet, Sweet BrewDog Brewski: Because who doesn't love a shareholder discount, especially when it involves fueling your love for craft beer?
- Birthday Beers: Because everyone deserves a celebratory brew on their special day, especially if you're also an investor in the company that makes it!
- Invites to the Annual General Meeting (AGM): Brush up on your business casual attire and get ready to mingle with fellow Equity Punks (and maybe even snag a free beer or two – but that's not confirmed, this is just humorous speculation).
Remember: Owning shares comes with some responsibility (though probably not as much responsibility as owning a dog... hopefully). It's always wise to do your research before investing in any company, even one that brews such delicious IPAs.
Tip: Summarize the post in one sentence.![]()
So, there you have it! Now you're armed with the knowledge to navigate the world of BrewDog share ownership. So crack open a Punk IPA, raise a glass to your newfound financial prowess, and remember, with great beer comes great investment responsibility (and hopefully, a lifetime supply of BrewDog).
