Another new microbrewery, no GHB.

We are very lucky here in the UK,insomuch as we have more breweries opening than closing at the moment,this being mainly due to the very favourable tax incentives available to breweries producing relativley small amounts of beer.Thier is a school of thought that this position will change, with a change of government,and that a lot of the new wave of micros will become unviable.from what I am reading on this board the posistion seems differant in germany,and breweries are closing because of a lack of someone to carry on the business,is this so?A more worrying trend we have here is the closure of pubs,do to social and economic changes in society,this thankfully does not seem to be the case in Franconia! cheers!
