Microbreweries 'the way forward' after 11 open in year
The number of microbreweries in Wales is set to carry on rising as the pub industry deals with continued closures, says the Campaign for Real Ale (Camra).
Figures from the real ale lobby group show 11 breweries opened in Wales over 12 months, with six of them in pubs.
