SCOTLAND’s first community-owned micro-brewery will go from a dream to reality after its founders shattered two crowdfunding targets. The Isle of Eigg Brewery started a fundraising campaign in November in a bid to make the facility the country’s most environment-friendly. Their initial target of £125,000 was reached and breached within a few weeks, so founding directors Stu McCarthy and Ben Cormack set a second target of £190,000 which they said would enable them to fast-track the social and environmental impacts they want it to deliver. By last night, after the last full day of their campaign, they had raised more than £195,000 from more than 600 investors, who bought share packages at varying prices and with different benefits.
